Yeah...I am aware of KBB.....but some cars just dont fall as close to their estimates as you would think..........also, I sold the original headlights and wheels/tires........so these extras would go with the car. Figured it would be right up someones alley on this forum.......

My guess is somewhere around the low 20s or high 10s. Cars will lose about half their value in the first three years.
This is why I buy new and I plan to drive the car pretty much to the end.
If you have the stock wheels and tires, sell the car with those and sell the wheels seperately. Might be troublesome, but you should come out a bit further ahead.
Additionally, service history on these cars are important. If your car is always serviced at the dealership, this is a big plus to the secondary buyer. If you kept your receipts for all your modifications and they were done at reputable locations, another big plus.
Good luck.

I have same car but I always keep my stock parts for when I sell the car. Expect a price in low 20's. 22 if you are lucky. I already have a committed buyer for 26 for mine.... but he wants all the mods too, so I won't have to part out. End of August it will be gone probably.... bad part is I don't like any of the cars in market right now.
