So, you’ve built something — and now you’re ready to reward yourself with something rare. Whether it’s a Ferrari, a McLaren, or a custom-spec piece of art on wheels, buying an exotic isn’t just about horsepower. It’s about making a confident, informed decision that fits your lifestyle and your portfolio.
Here’s what seasoned buyers ask before making their next big move — and how Woodside Credit helps make it effortless.
Is This the Right Exotic for Me?
Not all exotics are built for the same purpose. Some are for carving up the coast on weekends. Others are for collecting dust-free bragging rights. And a few — the smart ones — may even appreciate over time.
Ask yourself:
- Am I driving it, showing it, or storing it?
- Am I thinking long-term value or immediate thrills?
- Do I already have something similar in the garage?
Purpose helps you narrow in on the right model, trim, year — and financing structure.
Have I Accounted for the True Cost?
You know the drill: it’s not just the price on the listing.
Make sure you’re clear on:
- Insurance (specialized coverage matters)
- Maintenance (especially with aging European exotics)
- Registration, tax, title
- Service intervals and specialty parts
- The value of keeping mileage low and condition pristine
Adding 15–25% buffer to your budget isn’t about overspending — it’s about never having to think twice.
Am I Using the Right Financing Partner?
When it comes to exotic car financing, not every lender gets it.
Woodside Credit works exclusively with collectors and their high-end vehicles. That means:
- Extended terms designed to lower payments and keep your cash working for you elsewhere in investments
- No prepayment penalties and no balloon payments, ever
Experienced professionals who understand the vehicles and white-glove service
Is the Vehicle History Solid?
A clean, documented history isn’t optional at this level — it’s table stakes.
Before signing off, verify:
- Clean title
- Verified service records
- Any prior damage or modifications
- Authenticity and provenance
- Pre-purchase inspection (PPI) by a trusted specialist
Trust but verify — and protect your investment.
What’s My Long-Term Plan?
Whether you plan to keep it, trade up, or pass it down — have an exit strategy. The right move today can add value tomorrow.
Consider:
- How the car fits into your broader collection
- Which models are trending upward in value
- Colors and specs that command a premium
Keeping it serviced, stored, and documented to perfection
