Finance Express to Provide Dealers Access to Carfax Vehicle History Reports

RANCHO SANTA MARGARITA, Calif., Feb. 1, 2007 -- Finance Express, the leading provider of web-based financial services and Dealer Management technology for independent auto dealerships, and Carfax, the experts in vehicle history, today announced that Finance Express will offer a seamless way for its subscribing dealers to pull Carfax Vehicle History Reports and window stickers through the Finance Express system.

"Finance Express is pleased to be working with an industry leader like Carfax," said David Huber, President of Finance Express. "Independent used car dealers recognize Carfax as one of the most trusted names in the marketplace, and by providing them access to Carfax from the Finance Express system, we are helping streamline the sales process and make it that much more efficient."

Through Finance Express' CRM tool, dealers will be able to email Carfax reports, boosting consumer confidence in the used vehicle they are considering and adding a tremendous amount of credibility to the used car buying process.

"Although we currently offer free window stickers to our subscribing dealers, providing them the additional option to print detailed Carfax window stickers is simply another way we are adding value for every independent used car dealer on our system," added Mr. Huber.

"One of the keys for dealers to hold more gross is providing Carfax Vehicle History Reports up front in the sales process," said Larry Gamache, communications director at Carfax. "Now those dealers who use the fully integrated Finance Express system have numerous ways to leverage the Carfax name to build trust with their customers."
