Suggested retail value according by KBB.com if in excellent condition is $24,005 with the specs you stated. Maybe more if you have package included with the car. Ex. Sport, Touring, and Grand package. Good luck with selling a most appreciated car. I am sure you'll get a significant offer for this one!

I would say a realistic price is about 3k less than what REV_ME mentioned.
Don't even bother going to carmax. They wanted to give me $17,000 for my 2004, GT, navi, etc. It had about 22,000 miles on it at the time.

I love my 8 to death, but if you're trying to get rid of one at the moment, prepare to take a substancial loss as opposed to what KBB tells you.
I went through some buyer's remorse about a week after buying my 05 new, and I found out that the best offer I could get was almost $4K less then the KBB price. As others have mentioned, with dealers cutting prices down into the deep $22-24K range...you'll have a lot to compete with.
I wouldn't think it's too absurd to ask about $22,000 to start negotiating.

I was thinking 20K, i got a new job as a electrician and might have to drive on unpaved surefaces and a long trip in the winter in the snow might be kind of scary in a rx-8... nothing is to final yet tho i might get a 96 blazer and keep the car. or get a 04 blazer and get ride of my car. I just don't want to get rid of it lol.

You'll never get as much value as you want when you sell your RX-8. Buyers of used RX-8s seem to always be thrilled. Sellers of used (or even new) RX-8s seem to think life sucks.

I just sold my '04 Touring package (which is what yours sounds like) with same mileage as yours for $18,000. I'm in Southern California, though; where you are (wherever that is) the used RX-8 market might be different.
