First rule of business, research.

doesn't mean though that your site wont take off aswell as there are many many people online who want to advertise there car for free as much as possible.

thats a real sucker about the web, every idea has been taken many many times.

Plus you have sites like Pistonheads where you can advertise for free.

I think Pistonheads have the best way, as they have a lot of car enthusiasts coming to the site anyway so your ad gets plenty of views.

You need something unique to draw people in. What I thought would be good is to have an option to view the car in 3D. Like how quicktime puts loads of pictures together and you can view it all at once.

But that would depend on people uploading enough photos.
