SAN FRANCISCO, April 19 /PRNewswire/ -- The following is being issued by BancBoston Robertson Stephens, a member of the National Association of
Securities Dealers, CRD number 41271:

BancBoston Robertson Stephens senior e-tailing and specialty retailing analyst Lauren Cooks Levitan and managing director and senior Internet analyst
Keith E. Benjamin today initiated coverage of Autoweb.com, Inc. (Nasdaq: AWEB), with a Buy rating. The company's web site allows consumers to shop
online for new and used cars, insurance, financing, private classifieds and auto accessories.

"We are initiating coverage of Autoweb.com with a Buy rating, as we believe the company is emerging as a leading e-tailer of automotive products,
services and information," said Levitan and Benjamin. "Autoweb.com's business model benefits both consumers and dealers, and thus strongly positions
the company for rapid growth. In addition, we believe the automobile sales market is highly appropriate for migration to the online channel, and Autoweb
is attractively positioned to gain share in this growing online market."
