SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ANALYSIS AND PRESENTATION OF USED VEHICLE PRICING DATA
First Claim
1. A method for pricing a used vehicle, comprising:
- receiving, by a process embodied on a non-transitory computer readable medium, user input data from a client device, the user input data comprising information about a used vehicle in a locale;
the process receiving or obtaining socio-economic data specific to the locale;
constructing regression variables tailored to the used vehicle based the information about the used vehicle in the locale and the socio-economic data specific to the locale;
based on historical transactions that occurred within a predetermined distance of the locale and that involved vehicles of a given year, make, and model that is same or similar to the used vehicle, determining an average residual value for the given year, make, and model;
determining a final price for the used vehicle using the average residual value from the historical transactions and the regression variables tailored to the used vehicle; and
communicating the final price for the used vehicle to the client device.

Abstract
Systems and methods for the aggregation, analysis, and display of data for used vehicles are disclosed. Historical transaction data for used vehicles may be obtained and processed to determine pricing data, where this determined pricing data may be associated with a particular configuration of a vehicle. The user can then be presented with an interface pertinent to the vehicle configuration utilizing the aggregated data set or the associated determined data where the user can make a variety of determinations. This interface may, for example, be configured to present the historical transaction data visually, with the pricing data such as a trade-in price, a list price, an expected sale price or range of sale prices, market low sale price, market average sale price, market high sale price, etc. presented relative to the historical transaction data.
