NCX brings up a lot of goods points about selling online. He sounds more experienced than me, I sold mine locally thru carsdirect.com. I think it took about 2-3 weeks to sell, but well worth the price. I had people calling from all over and met a few face-2-face for them to test drive (if you let people test drive though, I chose to not have people know where I live, and met them at a well lit, well populated area, like a shopping mall parking lot). I was very firm with my price (since I had pretty good interest), got exactly what I wanted in terms of price (KBB value), and got a lot more than what dealers and CarMax wanted ($5k more).
