MyCarPage.com to Provide Vehicle Web Pages to LemonBuster Customers

    SANTA MONICA, Calif.--March 9, 2000-- MyCarPage.com(TM)helps consumers after purchasing vehicles. LemonBusters Inc. helps consumers before purchasing vehicles. Internet developer MyCarPage.com today announced an exclusive agreement with LemonBusters Inc. to provide MyCarPage.com personal vehicle Web pages to LemonBusters customers.
    "Our arrangement with LemonBusters provides a perfect marriage of services for vehicle owners," says Michael Moskowitz, MyCarPage.com president and founder. "Now, consumers can have peace of mind during the entire ownership cycle."
    MyCarPage.com personal vehicle Web pages make it easy and economical for consumers to manage all their vehicle ownership needs, tracking their automobile maintenance and history using the Internet, and offering services ranging from e-mail service reminders to money-saving coupons and Kelley Blue Book values. Additionally, MyCarPage.com provides customer management software to its automotive service clients, allowing them to better focus marketing efforts based on individual customer service frequency, vehicle type, demographics and spending patterns. The combined result is improved customer satisfaction and increased repeat and referral business.
    "MyCarPage.com is a natural follow-up to a LemonBusters inspection," says Todd Johansen, LemonBusters director of sales and marketing. "After receiving a complete overview of a vehicle's condition when it's purchased, consumers then get an online resource for managing all their vehicle ownership needs, plus a direct line of communication to service technicians."
    LemonBusters, a mobile service that performs inspections on used cars, pores over mechanical, electrical, body and chassis features before a vehicle is purchased. The result is a comprehensive review of the positive aspects of a vehicle, as well as recommendations for repair or maintenance and disclosure of previous and existing structural damage. LemonBusters field representatives--all A.S.E. certified master technicians--are equipped with diagnostic and inspection equipment, including hydraulic lifts.
    "Our pre-purchase inspections help consumers avoid unexpected repair costs and the headaches of bad cars," says Johansen, LemonBusters director of sales and marketing. "We're the fact-finders and information providers who level the playing field between buyers and sellers. When a car buyer has the ability to deal strictly with the facts, the right buying decision comes easily. LemonBusters technicians never perform repairs of any kind, so customers can rest assured that our reports are unbiased."
