Some general tips for placing the ad:

1. Clean the car really well, including engine
2. Take complete pictures, including all problem areas
3. Take a picture of coin in center of tire to show depth
4. Describe condition acurate, including problem areas
5. List all recent service
6. Include VIN

A comprehensive description and pictures of a clean car will really help you out. As for pricing, I'd put it at 10-20% off of what KBB says Trade-In value with Best Offer included.

Good luck and keep us updated!
Spot on. I would not provide the VIN but put a note that it will be provided to serious inquiries.

I've sold a minivan on CL and bought my current car from them as well. When selling the minivan, I added a link to a photobucket page with 30 images of it and gave as much info as I could. It sold in 2 days.

Ebay does reach a broader audience, but is pretty expensive considering the current market.
