Most people don't keep daily drivers for more than 5 years.. even if they are modded. Sell it while it still has value and start working on the next ride. I'll probably never sell my CLK, but that's because it is a one-off and will be the first of several tuner cars I want to build and keep. Daily drivers last about 4-5 years for me.

I buy a car because I love it, not to get rid of it after 5 year 
It is not my daily driver, but I still keep my 300D, and its 25 years old! Cars can always be repaired. I want to collect the cars I buy, not sell them. That includes the van I own, because they only produced the turbos for 2-3 years. My next car on my list will be a 996, once the 997 comes out, theres gonna be a lot of sellers

As for others who mod their daily drivers, heavily modding a car and driving heavy miles can really reduce the resale value, especially in today's world of low interest rates and free maintenance.
I went through that with my Audi S4. I had a full suspension, 18" BBS RXIIs, chip adn exhaust, and the money I got for it was the same as selling a stock S4.
No one wants to buy an overly slammed CLK with high mileage.
Personally, I plan to mildly mod my clk and trade it in a few years from now for a CLK 55.
