With Quick Values, users receive instant access to the full range of trusted Kelley Blue Booknew- and used-car values, including industry-relevant information not available on kbb.com, such as Wholesale Lending Value and Auction Value, all updated weekly. Additionally, for used cars, Quick Values provides Kelley Blue Book Certified Pre-Owned, Trade-In and Suggested Retail Values, and for new cars, Quick Values offers Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP), Invoice and Fair Purchase Price (which reports what others are paying for new cars this week).
