Like others said, lights (rechargeable), creeper, good jack and/or jack stands, magnet bowl, magnet's pen(see link), torque wrench, breaker bar, Car ramps. Or maybe if you have a harbor freight in your area a gift card there. I use to always buy craftsman tools but with them(sears) hurting so bad lately i have started buy HF stuff because they make warranty exchange so damn easy and stuff is cheap in price.

Dont go off the brands i linked just the type of tool itself. Also a vice, or C-clamps, or portable speaker to use while working on said car. :)
I hope this helps you some...

As I stated elsewhere I don't think a torque wrench should be on the top of the 'recommended tools' list, esp if you just plan on doing routine maintenance. They are definitely good to have once you start tackling larger projects but a good torque wrench can be quite expensive and I think that money is better spent elsewhere when first putting together a tool set for routine maintenance.

Leverage.
I have the matco (3x as expensive) version of all of these:
