    SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 8 -- The N.A.D.A. Official Used Car
Guide(R) Company today unveiled an interactive Web-based version of its
popular consumer publication.
    The Internet version of the N.A.D.A. Official Used Car Guide will provide
values found in the current quarterly Consumer Edition, the nation's
top-selling used vehicle guide book, at no charge.  The Web site is

    "We've been besieged by requests to make N.A.D.A. vehicle values available
on-line," said Scott Lilja, the executive director of the N.A.D.A. Official

used vehicle values. Making these values available online should help millions
of consumers make better-educated vehicle purchasing decisions."
    Online visitors to nada.com can retrieve "low retail," "average retail,"
and "high retail" values for specific years, makes, and models of domestic and
import cars and light duty trucks.  The interactive Web site adjusts values
automatically to reflect vehicle options and mileage.  The site can also
produce side-by-side vehicle comparisons.
    To further assist consumers, visitors to the N.A.D.A. consumer site can
link directly to the National Automobile Dealers Association Dealer Locator,
which can search for member dealer locations and information, by zip code.
Online consumers also will be able to purchase print versions of the N.A.D.A.
Official Used Car Guide Consumer Edition directly through authorized Internet
resellers, or find an authorized reseller near them via zip code search.
    N.A.D.A. consumer motorcycle, recreation vehicle and motorhome values are
also available online through a link to the N.A.D.A. Appraisal Guides Company
site.  The N.A.D.A. Appraisal Guides Company site may be reached directly at
