Time to sell: What's it worth? New Engine

I'm going to put my 2004 RX8 GT up for sale and need some advise on what it's worth. The car has approximately 83k miles, 6-speed, new Nitto tires, new front brakes, and every option with the exception of the Nav system. It also had a new engine installed around 79k miles. Body is very good with the exception of some front bumper damage where my wife backed into the car with hers.

What should I realistically list this for?
Thanks,

$4000.00 tops. Also, it's a re manufactured engine comprised of some new but mostly used parts so it's not a new engine. Depends on where you live though as far as value.


Edit: Needs bumper, fender, and headlights and who knows what else. So I would say 4k tops.

Point taken, it is a factory rebuild.

If there wasn't body damage I'd say you could probably get as high at 5-6 but 4k sounds about right.

Looks like the car is selling for $4,300. I guess I'm going to have to get the 79 RX7 running so I can enjoy a rotary.

I bought my 04 rx8 this year for $3000. Literally no issues other than the catalytic. But it was my friend's grandma's car, so they sold it to me slightly cheaper than their asking price of $4000.
It had 72k miles. 6 speed, No add-ons or accessories

$4300.00 is crazy but that is great for you.
