This vehicle $53,492 · $5,228 (9%) below MSRP

MSRP is the manufacturer's suggested retail price, shown for reference only. OAV rates new-car deals by how far below the LOCAL COMPARABLE MARKET a vehicle is priced (see OAV's market comparables / MRP and sold-price value / TRV) — not by discount from MSRP, because dealer-supplied MSRP is not independently verified.
