What to get for father’s day? Dad’s can be hard to buy things for. They’ll often say they don’t want anything. They might say they already have everything. And, in some cases, it might even be true. But that doesn’t mean they don’t appreciate a thoughtful gift. If the dad in your life is into cars and racing, or just generally cool stuff, here’s the only 2026 Father’s Day gift guide you need.
Ferrari 812 Superfast Luggage Set
Is dad’s luggage looking a bit ragged? Don’t go to a big shop and look around and buy something basic. Instead, place a bid on this set of four impeccably-crafted pieces by Ferrari. They’re offered by RM Sotheby’s without reserve at a guide price of 8,000 to 12,000 euros. Even better: if dad happens to drive a Ferrari 812 Superfast, this set will fit like a glove.
Lego Williams Racing FW14B
If the dad in your life could really use some real-world entertainment, something apart from screen-time, he could do a lot worse than building this nostalgic Lego F1 car. The 1992 Williams Racing FW14B, designed by Adrian Newey, is one of the best-looking F1 cars of all time. (Feel free to @ us.) It was also one of the most dominant, taking Nigel Mansell to his first and only F1 championship. The Lego version is $99, which is an absolute bargain when you consider the amount of mindful, blissful, relaxation it’ll bring. Put on some records. Pop the cork on a nice bottle. And build it one brick at a time. Honestly, it’s so good.
Autodromo Group C Turbo Sport Chronograph
There is no shortage of on-point automotive-inspired watches out there these days. You can’t go wrong with either the new TAG Heuer Formula 1, or the Tudor Black Bay Chrono Carbon 26. But if those feel a tad too extravagant for father’s day, Autodromo just dropped a delicious take on the analog/digital watch for only $680. The brand was founded by Bradley Price, a New York-based industrial designer and gearhead. Many of the pieces are inspired by the dials on vintage Alfas and Lancias. This one, however, was inspired by the overpowered “turbo era” of endurance racing prototypes from the ‘80s and ‘90s. It’ll become a go-to summer watch for laidback weekends.
Mercedes-AMG F1 Team Merch
As F1 gets more popular, the collabs keep getting better. All kinds of clothing brands are getting in on the action. The recent drop from Mercedes is a particularly bold example. But, whatever dad’s favourite team or driver is, there’s something out there for him, from hats, to shirts, to full leather jackets and so much more. Not just that, but the vintage market of classic F1 merch is booming too. (What we couldn’t give for a period-correct Canon Williams cap, or Benetton team polo.)
Ferrari 550 Barchetta Helmets and Hat
The 550 Barchetta is not a household name. Even in the Ferrari world, it’s a rare with only 448 built to celebrate the 70th anniversary of Ferrari’s long-time coachbuilder and stylist, Pininfarina. One of those will run you anywhere from $US550,000 to over $1 million. At 8,000 to 12,000 euros, this set of two Ferrari 550 Barchetta helmets being auctioned by RM Sotheby’s is much more reasonable. It comes with a deeply cool leather baseball hat too, which we’d absolutely wear all summer.
Rolls-Royce Spectre Series II
We admit: it’s a bit extravagant. But, on the other hand, if dad has been really good this year, he deserves it. The all-electric Spectre was already our favourite Rolls-Royce (apart from the flagship Phantom) but that didn’t stop the engineers in Goodwood from making it even better with the Series II. There’s as much as 18 per cent more range, bringing the total to around 630 kilometres on the European WLTP standard. (Here it Canada, it’ll be more like 520 km.) Not that it needed it, but torque has increased up to 738 lb-ft in “Spirited Mode.”
