Kelley Blue Book

Car price guide

Kelley Blue Book is a reference guide for vehicle pricing, used to determine the market value of new and used cars.

Originally a printed book for auto dealers, it became a consumer resource for buying, selling, and trading vehicles: What's the Kelley Blue Book value on that truck?

Often shortened to KBB or just Blue Book.
