By: Lindsey Roder

(Virginia Beach, VA) October 10, 2005 - AutoMart.com has
released a report of the most popular searched vehicles amongst
online consumers for September 2005. The study is based on the
most recent vehicles searched on AutoMart.com. Among the top
manufacturers are Honda, Toyota, and Ford.

Top 10 Searched Vehicles 1 Honda Civic 2 Honda Accord 3 Ford
Mustang 4 Ford F-150 5 Volkswagen Jetta 6 Toyota Tacoma 7
Mitsubishi Eclipse 8 Toyota Camry 9 Jeep Wrangler 10 Toyota
Corolla

"The core of AutoMart.com listings come from major franchise
automobile dealers who traditionally focus on selling late model
pre-owned vehicles," said Skip Dowd, regional manager and vice
president for AutoMart.com. "This offers us a clear look at the
popularity and consumer demand for pre-owned vehicles," said
Dowd.

AutoMart.com's study also shows that the economy has had a
profound effect on buyer behavior and demand, as seven of the
Top 10 vehicles are smaller, more fuel-efficient cars. The study
also shows a substantial increase in market trends with compact
and mid-sized cars in the past several months. In the era of
increasing gas prices, the small vehicle market is continuing to
grow.

AutoMart.com provides consumers a unique opportunity to only
search ads from dealerships, providing a sense of confidence in
their search for a new vehicle. The continued success and
increasing Internet traffic growth of AutoMart.com shows that
consumers are relying more on quality instead of quantity.
