Value Your Trade-In with Fremont Buick GMC

The Kelley Blue Book® Instant Cash Offer is a real offer for a specific amount to purchase a consumer's car or apply the amount toward another car. The Offer is valid for 7 days and can be immediately redeemed during business hours at any Participating Dealer, pending inspection. It is based on specific elements of the consumer's car, like installed options, specific condition (such as dents and mechanical issues) and local market demand.

Your Instant Cash Offer is calculated using a proprietary tool that accounts for fluctuating market conditions and used car prices that may vary from day to day, like home or stock prices. The calculation includes multiple data sources and is based on factors that affect used car pricing such as:

• Your Specific Vehicle Details
  • Our tool factors in details that are specific to your vehicle and critical to its evaluation.
  • Considerations include mechanical condition, options, interior and exterior, mileage, year, make, and model.
• Supply and Demand
  • Consumers play a major role in determining a car's value.
  • When demand for a particular vehicle is high and inventory is low, the value increases.
  • For example, fuel-efficient cars may see increased demand and higher prices when gas prices rise.
• Historical Trends
  • Some cars historically retain their value better than others.
  • Transaction prices for certain vehicles may steadily increase over time, making them more desirable.
• Regional Differences
  • Vehicle values can differ based on location.

• Local Market Influences
  • Comparable vehicle sales in your area help determine market value.
  • Sources include dealer sales data, auction prices, and private seller listings.
