Did I sell my GLK for too cheap?

I just sold my 2012 GLK RWD (with no option but a iPod interface) with only 6500 miles, service A done, with absolutely zero dings/dent/scratch for $29,995 cash (right, sound like a dealer Ad price..) coz I am considering upgrade to a 2014 GLK350 or the upcoming CLA.

I put the car on CL and it got sold the next day... it happens too fast and I am not so sure if I sold it for too cheap or not, it is below KBB but $2-5k above what carmax/local dealer offers me. So is $30k a good price for both the buyer and me? I did get tons of reasonable offers after I sold my car...

What actually make me feel a bit better is that I got a quote from local MB of a 2014 GLK 350 base for under $32k, so only 2k difference (plus TTL of course) I think I can upgrade to newer model Or another GLK AWD with Q1 pkg (without pano, not quite sure what Q1 pkg is) for about $36k in my favorite blue color. Can anyone share some thoughts on whether the Q1 pkg and AWD worths $4k more?

I was told that Q1 pkg does not exist for the 2014 GLK model, only P1 pkg...

maybe not available for 250? dealer's quote listed it as Q1 and mentioned no pano, I assume it is P1 without the moonroof which I don't really mind.

The 2014 GLK ordering guide provided by my dealer does not have Q1 pkg, only P1 pkg. Is your dealer's quote for already built 2013 model?

Would you happen to remember the MSRP of the car when bought new?

A gaggle of MB's
Q1 is a factory designation for P1 package when Pano is not available - it is not a orderable option...
