CarHop Opens New Store in Portland, OR

March 31, 2011 - PRLog -- CarHop, the third largest “on the spot financing” automotive dealer in the United States, celebrated the Grand Opening of a new store in Portland, OR on March 31. It is CarHop’s 46th store to open nationwide in its 15-year history.

CarHop, which helps car buyers with poor or no credit get approval for auto loans, has now opened stores in 12 states across the U.S. The Portland location will provide a passionate and energized CarHop presence in the state of Oregon and will allow CarHop to further pursue its mission of “helping people drive.”

“I’m excited to be opening our landmark store here in Oregon, especially with the great team we’ve assembled,” District Manager Bea Swanson said. “CarHop just continues to grow and it is a privilege to help people drive in a great state like Oregon.”

Unlike new car dealerships, which cater to customers with high credit scores who are able to handle high monthly payments, CarHop offers same-day financing decisions with little down and low monthly payments. And, unlike many lower-end used car lots and “buy here, pay here” dealers which sell cars “as is,” CarHop includes an 18-month, 18,000 mile limited warranty on all of its vehicles.

“In this economy, it’s wonderful that our unique program can help people who might not otherwise have an opportunity to finance a car in this area,” Swanson said. “On top of that, our location is centrally located in Portland to make it easy for customers to stop by and see us.”

CarHop’s Portland store is located at 8555 SE 82nd Ave. To find out more, visit http://www.carhop.com.
