TrueCar Adds Black Book Used Car Values

Santa Monica-based TrueCar, the automotive pricing website headed by Scott Painter, has added "Black Book" used car values to the site. According to the company, the new values come via an agreement with National Auto Research, a division of Hearst Business Media. Financial details of the deal between the firms was not announced. Black Book is one of a number of competing sources for used car valuation, and competes against Kelley Blue Book and NADA. TrueCar said the prices will be available on Clearbook, the firm's used vehicle pricing website.
