Car dealer - your first stop could be your very own car dealer. He was the one who got you all the information and details when you were making the purchase. He is also well qualified and equipped to provide you information or even the product itself. He may not have it ready right then, but can easily fetch it for you. The downside is the high price which is mostly because of the middlemen involved in the process.
This is not the case with shopping for car parts online. Many websites that sell car parts have advanced search options.

These days almost every car part is available used but it is better to buy some parts as new. If you are driving with kids or passengers often, then it is always better to buy new parts for your car because it is very unlikely to understand how well the used parts will perform.

On the other hand, if you are attracted to freebies or offer that sound too good to be true, you are likely to waste a lot of money on inferior quality accessories later.
Changing the brake pads is the next step. Remember that there are books at your local used auto search, on eBay, and at any bookstore that you can also buy. These will give you step by step instructions along with picture illustrations as to how to change and maintain brake pads.
Exotic cars are very fun for those that can pay the money to get them. You may not know that the parts are going to be just as expensive as the car was in the first place. Not to mention how hard it's going to be to find the auto parts for the vehicle. You wanted a car that would stand out and you got that with your exotic car with the odd auto parts that they may need.
