Not sure I'm adding anything here you don't already know, but maybe some of you searching for a Porsche as I am will find this handy if you haven't done it already.

I goto Googles' main search screen and on right hand side there is an advanced link. Select it.

Why use this screen ?
Because is allows you to do global database searches within a domain....for example, I could put in key words such as 'Porsche RUF' or 'Porsche widebody' and then under 'search within a site or domain' I could put in craigslist.org or autotrader.com and I get any/all results within that domain. I get alot of results easily which may otherwise be difficult to find.

A short cut once you use this is simple.....note the syntax below.

porsche widebody site:craigslist.org
or
porsche widebody site:autotrader.com

You can also use craigshelper.com or search tempest to search craigslist sites near you.
