Travis Barker gave his kids a Christmas to remember.
The drummer picked two gifts that definitely can’t be gift-wrapped or even fit under the tree.
He surprised his two oldest kids with a brand-new black Mercedes each.

Since their incredibly opulent wedding last year, Kourtney Kardashian and her family, who are known for spending lavishly, must be rubbing off on Travis Barker.
While kids worldwide were unwrapping toy cars on Christmas morning, the Barker household did things differently.
Barker has just had a kid with Kardashian but also has two older children from a previous marriage.
Landon is 20 while Alabama turned 18 on 24 December.
Typically, having a birthday so close to Christmas can be disappointing.
So Travis made sure to maximize the festive cheer this year, especially seeing as it was Alabama’s big 18th.
He splashed out on two matching G-Wagens for his kids, both in black and both presented with a huge red bow.
Alabama posted the surprise on her Instagram story, where Landon, a famous TikToker, is seen trying to find his phone to capture the moment too.
One of these cars goes for $140,000, which is pocket change to Barker who has a net worth of $50 million.
While we don’t know if he made any mods, we know Barker spent at least $280,000 on his oldest children’s gifts.
The G-Wagen is the car of choice in the celebrity world.
It’s the model that Drake chose to give away to a lucky fan at a concert recently.
And Barker’s very own sister-in-law Kylie Jenner has one too, which she gets re-wrapped in new colors often.
Travis Barker himself is a known petrolhead with his personal collection including a Porsche Taycan Turbo S and a LaFerrari.
If he wants to make his newborn feel as special as his older kids currently do, might we suggest a Bugatti Baby for $32,000?
