CarDomain's Car Enthusiast Online Social Network Breaks 1.5 Million-member Barrier

Largest Such Online Community Site Offers New Functionality for Fans of All Makes of Cars and Trucks

SEATTLE - March 2, 2006: CarDomain Network, the largest and oldest online community for car and truck enthusiasts, today announced that with the launching of its upgraded site (www.cardomain.com), it now features more than 1.55 million members. These members are responsible for posting more than 390,000 "rides" through their personalized interactive profiles enabling them to share their passion for cars with other enthusiasts. Whether it's posting photos of modified cars, polling your friends on your most recent improvement, reading about auto shows, locating and purchasing hard-to-find car parts or sharing opinions and information with other car lovers, there is something for every car enthusiast at CarDomain.com.

First launched in 1988, CarDomain.com offers members the ability to showcase photos of their rides, enabling them to share their experiences with other serious car fanatics. The updated CarDomain site gives its members an automotive take on the type of social networking offered by MySpace, Friendster or Facebook.

Said Alex Algard, Chief Executive Officer of CarDomain, "At CarDomain, our online community is all about fueling the passions of car enthusiasts -- everything we do is with that in mind. Unlike newcomers to this arena, such as Edmunds.com, we know what car enthusiasts want, need and look for in a social networking site, and our newly updated site offers them just that."

CarDomain.com has always offered ways to connect with other serious car enthusiasts. Now, the newly enhanced CarDomain.com offers even more features, including:

-- Expanded auto show coverage and other original features and content
-- Easily searchable member profiles for connecting with others with
similar interests
-- Showcasing of members' car and truck photos
-- Easier-to-locate rides pages
