Thinking of selling...

Long time member but I haven't posted recently. I've got an '05 MR that I'm thinking of selling. Kelley Blue Book doesn't really handle special-interest vehicles, so I'm looking for advice on what I should expect to get for this car. I'll describe it and you all can tell me what you think.

188,000+ miles
good condition overall for its age/mileage
Buschur turboback
GReddy turbo timer (dealer installed)
Robispec KW clubsport suspension
no engine mods ever
recent timing belt and water pump replacement
original clutch

I know the mileage is high, but the car is solid and has never given me any trouble. I autocrossed it but it's been well-maintained and never abused.

Original clutch is still holding??? Lol I'm impressed but I'm sure you could get anywhere from $10K-$15K depending on the right buyer. But thats always the key, the "right" buyer i.e. someone who just wants the car regardless of anything else.

Original clutch may mean he drove it very easy. I have a nissan versa 6 speed with 280,000 MILES on the original clutch. Brother drove it like a grandpa.

So can Slowride...can you clarify you have not changed the clutch at all on your car?
