Probably the greatest factor. Manual is almost a negative in the auto/manual mode with paddle shifter world we live in. I wouldn't necessarily open the ad with the fact that it's a 6 speed manual. I don't think that's the most important feature of the car.

And as others mentioned, the pics aren't very flattering. Feature/benefit do more of it in the short description. I didn't see a video walk around which seems more and more popular. Add maintenance history and offer to provide carfax if you didn't. Price check against local dealers and make sure your price stands out. If you're too close to a dealer price on a private sale, you're going to lose that battle.
