Many 運転者s buying or 賃貸し（する）ing cars have a 重要な checklist ― which starts with their 予算.

Good looks, road presence and 業績／成果 are also up there, even more so if it’s a sports car.

?If it’s a family runaround, then space, practicality, 柔軟性, 燃料 economy and 負担-lugging ability tend to be more important.
