Buying a new vehicle is exciting, especially if it is a luxury sports car. The appearance of a new Audi or Porsche is hard to beat, from the acceleration of adrenaline for the first time to the pride and satisfaction you feel when you leave. However, before rushing to the dealership, there are five important things to consider before buying.

1. Research dealers
   Since it is a highly competitive industry, a company that has lasted more than 20 to 30 years is probably doing something right, so look for a dealer that has been around for a while. Also, make sure they offer services beyond sales, since you may need to replace or repair certain parts of your car in the future. Finally, look for a dealership that is willing to negotiate a reasonable price for the car you want. This does not necessarily mean the lowest price since a cheap price can mean cheap parts and service.
2. Choose the best car for you
   You really want that convertible Audi cherry red, but it may not be reasonable in a rainy weather. When choosing the right car, consider your environment, occupation and what you plan to use it for. If you have a large family, you might consider an Audi Q7: sporty, elegant and spacious enough to house a family. Or maybe you are a high-energy business person looking to impress potential clients. If so, a smaller and more elegant car like the Porsche 911 Turbo may be what you need.
3. Know the insurance costs
   Insurance is often an unforeseen cost of buying a new sports car. Most states require liability insurance, and almost any loan you take to buy the car will also. Imported sports cars generally have a very large price tag when it comes to insurance, so be sure to have a realistic figure in mind, otherwise you may find yourself in the final stages of buying the car before you Realize that it is out of your budget.
4. Do not wait for the registration
   Registering your new car is the last step in the purchase process, and it is important. Typically, the dealer is responsible for registering the car and obtaining the title, but you will be responsible for paying for new license plates or a license plate transfer, title and sales tax, if applicable. Taking care of these matters immediately means that you can start enjoying your new dream machine immediately.
5. The security inspection
   New cars must undergo a safety inspection within seven days of registration, so do not leave it until the end. Some cars, especially those previously owned, will also need a pre-insurance inspection to determine if the car has any pre-existing damage. This may seem like a nuisance, but safety and insurance inspections help protect the customer as much as the dealer or the insurance companies.

Buying a new sports car is a big problem. If you educate yourself about the products and take care of registration and insurance matters quickly, you will avoid some of the traps that entrap novice buyers.
