In a video on X, the man first received Christmas cards from all three of his children, with one sentence running through each of these.

"Find your way to the door."

After reading all the cards, he was handed a box and asked to open it, and when he did, he found a bundle of money said to be $10,000.

The man could not hold his tears back and started crying.

His children were amazed by his reaction, but still managed to lead him to the door to see the second gift.

When they got out, the new BMW 5 Series was parked in the driveway with a ribbon on the bonnet, with the man amazed at the sparkling gift.

The children explained that since he often said a Mercedes-Benz was his dream car, they thought to get it for him as a Christmas gift.

The children handed the car key to their dad, who seemed to be in disbelief.

They encouraged him to at least drive the car, as he sat in the driver's seat and told his children he was speechless.

"I don't know what to say. You've made me proud. This is the greatest Christmas, and I love my gift," the father said after the test drive around the block.
