Default How much can I sell this 350Z for?

Hey guys, love the site and support that comes with it so I am just curious if you guys could help me out when it comes time to throw a price tag on my Z. I want to get a realistic idea of what I can expect to sell this car for, never had this many custom additions to car before. I know that you always loose money on cars so I haven't added up every penny that I have spent and added that to the book value of private party. The number i am thinkin of is somewhere around 17,500. This is NOT a for sale add, just want to know what I should list it for. The car is not ready anyways, i am in the process of powder coating the Volk GTS's since the factory paint fell off....long story...got screwed by Rays. The pics show the wheels all satin black but I am thinking I will do the barrels in satin black and the disks (center/spoke) in a dark metallic gunmetal with a satin topcoat. Let me know what you think about the color of the wheels too! Do them in all satin black again or the color scheme I just described. Here are some quick details:

2003 Touring 6MT,59K miles, black interior, by saying Tourning model you guys should know all the options.. no navi, just a Pioneer Avic 4000-DVD w/ bluetooth.

Just a few mods...nothing crazy:

Bassani TD Exhaust
Motordyne plenum spacer
Jim Wolf intake
Underdrive crank pulley

Exterior/Wheels:

Full custom satin black paint job, not even 6 months old.
Shaved rear wiper and emblems.
Amuse front and sides
06-09 HID headlights
06-09 "Bump" hood
19"x9.5" +17 Volk GTS
19"x10.5" +18 Volk GTS
Brand new Hankook V12's - 255/35/19 and 285/35/19
Tires DONT rub, quarters were rolled.

Anyways, that's just a quick run down. Car was meticulously cared for, RP full synthetic every 4K miles, RP rear diff and trans changed @ 50K miles.

looks sick, but i doubt many people like the satin for their personal car, so i would say $16,500

*EDIT* for the wheels itd be sweet if you did a polished lip and the rest satin black

These add no value. You're better off returning the car to stock as possible and selling the parts separately. It's difficult to sell a modded vehicle.

2k over KBB is about all Id expect with your mods. List at 3500-4k over and hope for the best.

While your mods are expensive, unfortunately they are the lowest value adding ones on a car.

windows are tinted...just not in this pic, good idea on the emblems...been meaning to do that, I bought these headlights from nissan direct, they costed like $1300 for the pair so i didn't want to open a brand new light, if you can imagine.

Boosting it and keeping it may be the only option judging by the early responses. I realise a 14k car with 16k in mods isn't worth 30k...but like I said, I don't think 17,500 is un-reasonable. I think it will just takt the right buyer. Thanks for your input!!

Sell headlights for 1000. Sell rims for whatever they are worth. Sell the car for 14k. You would be pretty close to your 17.5

This is an option too, more than likely what will happen. Thanks for the input

for the most part people dont want to buy a modded car. so don't count on people wanting those same mods on their car.

That's a very nice car, but from my understanding, aftermarket parts/mods lowers the value of a car, I could be wrong... And the paint would have to fit the taste of the potential buyer(s)...
