Parts.com Releases TradeMotion 3.4 and Phase 1 of Its Direct2DMS Product; New Features Include Parts Locator Tied to Dealer Management Systems Completely Redesigned Parts.com Site and TradeMotion OCTANE Site

    SANFORD, Fla., Jan. 25 Parts.com, Inc.
(OTC Bulletin Board: MIRM), a marketplace and software solutions provider for
the automotive parts industry, announced the release of version 3.4 of its
TradeMotion software, including Phase I of Direct2DMS.
    The release of TradeMotion 3.4 unveils TradeMotion Direct2DMS, which
allows users to link directly to dealerships' ADP and Reynolds & Reynolds
management systems to locate parts.  TradeMotion Direct2DMS allows dealership
parts managers to search and retrieve the most accurate dealer parts inventory
information while completing the dealer-to-dealer transaction using the
TradeMotion OCTANE system.  This eliminates the need for inventory CD-ROMs
that are typically 45 days old, "E-Mail Parts Request Forms" that may or may
not be read, and voice systems that require dealers to jump through many
selections without transacting the order or verifying its availability.  Many
recently released systems address some dealers' needs but lack several key
elements to create a complete system.  The advantage to parts.com's Direct2DMS
product is its seamless integration into our back-office system, OCTANE.  It
is a complete system that enhances workflow and order management, unlike other
competing products, which interrupt workflow, a common symptom that plagues
today's existing locator systems.
    "We are excited to be offering our dealerships across the country a
product that is integrated into parts.com's existing back-end system and pulls
information from the Dealer Management Systems," stated Shawn Lucas, President
and Co-CEO of parts.com.  "Parts managers and advisors are not interested in
using products offered by other companies, 'dot com' and 'brick and mortar,'
that require jumping from computer to computer, screen to screen, and require
use of the telephone, just to find out that the part is not in stock.  They
also do not want to be forced to continually check and refresh their email
every five minutes to see if an order has come in.  Some companies have
engineered a creative yet ineffective system to mask their technology
weakness," concluded Mr. Lucas.
    Parts.com has successfully pushed orders into the DMS and will be
completing additional quality assurance procedures before launching Phase II
of the Direct2DMS product.  Parts.com's release of TradeMotion 3.4 includes
many enhancements throughout the parts.com Web site, such as an Aftermarket
Accessories Section.  Parts.com will further expand this section to
aftermarket parts for its dealer partners to procure when a vehicle's warranty
has expired, thus increasing the back-end margins for dealers who are looking
for quality parts and lower pricing.  TradeMotion Direct2DMS will allow
dealers to cancel their redundant systems which are one dimensional,
antiquated and cumbersome.
