Today, the Porter Automotive Group represents six franchises including Chevrolet, Hyundai, Nissan, Infiniti, Ford and Mitsubishi all located within the city of Newark, Delaware.
The Porter Auto Group also provides the local Newark area with three separate Pre-Owned lots that at any given time offer a phenomenal selection of high quality, hand selected, competitively priced pre-owned vehicles. We pride ourselves on marketing a vehicle that is "top quality." Our reputation for finding and offering vehicles that are in excellent condition, exceptionally rare, one-owner and low miles, especially performance cars like the Corvette and Mustang, have given us the opportunity to sell and ship our vehicles world-wide.
With years of committment and dedication to the business, the community and the employees, the Porter Auto Group has earned the award of "Best in Business" for 2007 and 2008.
Our automotive group also provides two "state of the art" Collision Repair Centers that are both located in Newark, Delaware that can accomodate any vehicle repair. We are an accredited and preferred repair center for most insurance companies including GEICO, Liberty Mutual, Nationwide and State Farm.

| "I think that the most important thing that I stress to my people is ethics. Our industry has been somewhat stereotyped over the years because some dealerships chose to take advantage of customers and had little regard for customer satisfaction. I believe the key to being successful in our business is building long-term relationships with our customers. This is achieved by providing the customers with a fair price, a job done right the first time, and most importantly, treat customers with the courtesy and respect they deserve. In short, do business with the highest standards and ethics. I think this is why over forty percent of my business comes from previous customers. I promise that the Porter experience will be like no other you are accustomed to when buying your next car, service, or collision repair needs. At Porter, you are truly family." |
