The New 12 Days of Christmas

Let's rewrite the 12 days Christmas as I really don't want a partridge in a pear tree. This song needs to be rewritten for the 21st century.

Here is the original:

On the first day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
A partridge in a pear tree.

On the second day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.

On the third day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.

...Four calling birds...
...Five golden rings...
...Six geese a-laying...
...Seven swans a-swimming...
...Eight maids a-milking...
...Nine ladies dancing...
...Ten lords a-leaping...
...Eleven pipers piping...
...Twelve drummers drumming...

What can you come up with? Here is my attempt:

On the first day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
A Porsche with a key

On the second day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Two tons of chocolate,
And a Porsche with a key

On the third day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Three plasma tvs,
Two tons of chocolate,
And a Porsche with a key

Two should be "Heat exchangers", One of the higher numbers should be "metric wrenches"

I was thinking something like:

Twelve Turbos spooling
Eleven S4's revving
Ten Cayennes crawling
Nine Eleven keys
Eight sets of brake pads
Seven Speedsters Shifting
Six belts a-tensioning
FIVE NINE FIVE NINES!
Four Racing Tires
Three Deutchmarks
Two Boxster Coupes
And a new Carrera GT
(Or a babe in fast Nine Seventeen)

How about...

Twelve quarts synthetic
Eleven extra horses
Ten laps of track time
Nine ninety seven
Eight racing tires
Seven polished wrenches
Six speed transmission
Five...point har-ness
Four new shocks
Three bottles nitrous
Two driving gloves
And a poster of my favorite grid girl
