What is my 03 CLS 6MT worth?

I knew my car was rare, but I can find no comparables online. Mine is 145k, 6-speed, Navi, Anthracite/black, spoiler. Clearcoat wear on rear roof and trunklid, driver seat leather wear. Timing belt, motor mounts, radiator, all replaced. AC, CD changer, Navi all work fine. Only mods are Comptech drop, alum CLS door sills, and alum console trim.
I'm seeing $3k-$6k? asking prices for the AT version, even without Navi but we all know the 6 speed is the one to have! The car just gets better with age. I bought it at 7500 miles.
I think 3500 6-speeds were made, 580 were Anthracite, 137 of those with Navi.
thanks,

Is this a testing waters thread?
You're probably at the right place to get top dollar...
and that top dollar will be whatever an enthusiast is willing to pay.
The prospect of having to get the car resprayed to deal with the failing clear is daunting, along with how many other used cars to look at when you go too far above that price point. Replacing/repairing seat isn't fun either...

That said, I think you'll fetch on the high end of your range to the right person, for sure! GLWS!

Thanks. It's just the bottom seat cover that has wear. I took good care of the paint, but I guess Texas weather while parked uncovered at work did it in. It will be a local sale. I'm amazed I can only find 1 or 2 6-speeds online for sale and one has no price. Over the years I've had several notes on my car, people wanting to buy it.
It happened with my 95 Legend coupe also. Too bad Acura left the under $150k coupe market 16 years ago. Glad I got to drive the ones I had...

When I bought mine, there were two other 6 speeds for sale in the Chi-waukee area, one "not running" for 2500 and one with around 200k in average condition, stock, for 3500. From what little I've seen of yours, I would try to ask about 5k.

FWIW: Several comparables posted on North Jersey Craigslist. They range from $2500, for one with 120K needing a clutch, to one with 29K original miles, with a turbo, also needing a clutch, for 4K. Another, with 200K, swapped out 110K eng and trans, with new T/B etc, numerous mods, and failing clearcoat, asking $4800.
