I think your best bet would be to setup a Bulgarian company and register the car there. You might be limited in choices in the Bulgarian car market but you can always buy the car in Germany on export plates and drive it to Bulgaria.

The solution I personally did was setup a foundation in the Netherlands, not sure how it works with insurance for foreigners but since I am Dutch myself that wasn't an issue. You can setup the Foundation online and will cost anywhere between 500-1000 euros, also plenty of storage option in the Netherlands and a professional car market.

Usually you have to register the car where you live, otherwise I would buy the car in Germany after getting an address there and keep it that way. They are the cheapest with cars in Europe, but it is not legal!
Yes would prefer to keep things legal. Don't need to give insurers another reason to not pay if it ever comes to that.

Have read the German market is the best for buying and so the export plates (accepting the higher insurance) and then deal with the importing later might be the best option. Thanks.

You want to research if it makes sense in your case.
