How do you price an efficent car to sell?

I'm trying to make some space, partly because I just bought another electric car, but also because some vehicles should go to a good home before they go past the point of no return, so how do you figure how much they are worth?
I never found blue book prices to be all that accurate, although they are a nice starting place, Ebay is hard because some vehicles advertise well, I've had varied luck with craigslist, somethings sell right away for more then I thought they would, and other stuff I feel like I can't give away.
my main reason for asking this is that I keep getting people who want me to practically give them my diesel rabbit because it's 25 years old, but if the wheel bearing and brakes were fixed would get 55mpg without trying.

So when you sell a car, how do you figure price?
