Step 3. Get disposable Google Phone/voice # and email address.
Step 4. Pay to list the car for sale on a few national sites (your pick - lots of options: Craigslist, Facebook, BringaTrailer, car.com) and on for-sale sections of car-guy forums (for free).
Step 5. Get ready to screen a LOT of inquiries from scammers and fraudsters. If you list the car at a reasonable price point, you will still get ~10-20% legitimate buyer inquires. If you over-price the car, the legitimate inquires will drop to 1-2% of total.
See above.
Price it to sell, and give private sale channel a 2-4 week tryout.
If it doesn't pan out, you can always go back to a CarMax or the dealer. A low-ball from the dealer may be worth it if the sales tax savings offset is included in the comparison.

Thanks. I am going thru Keysavvy which will handle my payoff and other transactions between me and the buyer. The buyer reached out to me via audi Forums and we made a verbal deal on price. I definitely priced it to sell based on a national search and KBB ranges. Let's see what happens. Appreciate everyone's input.
