What`s your dream car look like? You can see it clearly in your mind`s eye. It`s sitting there in all its glory, with sunshine bouncing off of it. Maybe it has a unique matte finish. Maybe it has a carbon fiber interior. You can even picture the fresh smell of the car wax emanates from all the nooks and crannies of the car. Now, just imagine having your dream car delivered to you by your own son.
A man recently decided to buy his mom her dream car, a 1973 Saab 99 EMS. He says in the video that he saved up his money for more than a year. It seems the wait was completely worth it.
The man delivers the envelope to his mom, who thinks she is simply opening a normal piece of mail. Little does she know that the envelope contains the keys to her future. She opens the envelope and quickly realizes something`s up. The man then leads her outside of their apartment complex for the big reveal.
The mom`s reaction is priceless and tugs at your heartstrings. She lets out a happy shout as her knees buckle and she falls to the ground. She hugs her son and the two share a moment neither of them will forget for the rest of their lives.
After a heartfelt moment with her son, she begins to look at every angle of the Saab. She opens the doors, admires the interior and once again embraces her son for another memorable moment. It`s the moments like these that you`ll never forget in your life. Even if you`re just watching the video for the first time or the hundredth, the power and tenacity of the human spirit never ceases to amaze.
Many of the comments below the video share similar sentiments, as most of the people reflect on how great and thoughtful the son`s actions are. It just goes to show you that people can be awesome.
