Default Opinions requested - What's it worth?

I moved to Brazil and my car has been garaged for almost two years so I am now thinking of selling it if I can get a fairly decent price.

the car is PERFECT and has less than 2000 miles on a new factory replacement warrantied engine. The work was done at Mossy Nissan Kearney Mesa and I have all the documents to prove it. Anyway - here is the specs on the car, what do you think

2003 Silverstone Touring Edition Z - purchased new, original owner. Car has not slept outside one day in its life.

black leather interior - believe it or not it still has a bit of "new car smell" in it. it has never been smoked in or eaten in.

as of right now, 24,000 and change original miles. less than 2K of them are on the new engine.

Upgrades -
Kenetix Plenum
UR Racing Pulleys
Injen CAI/JW Pop Charger combo
Nismo S Tuned Suspension
Nismo 19" 5 superlight 5 spoke rims
Brand New Bridgestone tires ZR-1 rated
Nismo body kit with tail but not the nose, I put on a small lip instead but I forgot the name!
Grounding Kit
Z-PC with 7" video sceen - in dash, looks factory. Nothing cut or changed here
LED Side Badges - blink with blinkers
Passport radar detector, hidden and display is in stock rear view mirror (very cool!)
Borla True Dual Exhaust
Hi-Flow Cats
Headers
extra set of TPS sensors.

I am sure there is some more but I cannot remember them at this time.

also, I have all original parts too except for rims.



I cannot bring it to Brazil so I figure it is best to sell it to someone who can enjoy it. The car is perfect, body, interior, everything and it has less than 2k on the new engine. So, what is a fair price to sell my baby for?

once again, it has been garaged EVERY DAY of its life since I purchased it new with only 7 miles on it.

and where would you recommend I sell it to get a fair price?

thanks in advance?

forgot to put -

it is a 6 speed manual tranny, tire growl/pull that was with this model was fixed years ago and I have never had an issue since.

finally - this is not a "sales pitch" I am just requesting opinions on what to price it for based on everything it has, what I have done and the low, low miles on it.

I will post it in the "for sale section" with the rest of the requirements when I come to a sales price, so please do not solict me (by posting here) that you will buy it.

Please, just opinions!!!!!

There are a lot of variables to consider. What are similar cars going for in your area? Even with the low miles & mods, I don't see you getting more then 15K. But I could be wrong. The value of your car is only what someone is willing to pay for it.

ouch. I was hoping for more

I pretty much got that alone in mods! If I sold it for that it would be like "buy the mods, get the car for free!"


anyone else?

Id say 15k max due to the low miles. You have to remember that mods don't increase the value.

That's what sucks about becoming a mod *****. I know I'll never get back what I paid for the mods when I do sale, but I cannot quit!

Kinda off topic, but is it me or do most people on this forum not know the word "sell"? If you put something up for sale, you want to sell it. Sorry about the rant OP, I just see that everywhere on here and I applaud you for using the correct terminology.
