Recent reports show that approximately one million transactions are facilitated through their service between dealers and car enthusiasts every year.

There are specific use cases native to the TrueCar API. For instance:

The MSRP has three data callbacks: 'baseMsrp - required' brings back the base price of a vehicle before any factory options or destination charges are added, 'msrpOptions - optional' includes any factory installed options, and 'destination - optional' will show the base plus the destination fee For pricing, there are two specific callbacks: 'dealerMsrpSavings' returns any dealer-specified savings that are offered, while 'dealerMsrpSavings' signifies any bonus discounts
