Thinking of selling my 05 e55 w/mods

It's black Opal with ventilated seats, and distronic cruise as the options. Mileage 89k.
Mods as follows
aftermarket kenwood nav unit utilizing factory fiber optic system.
full evosport stage 2 bolts ons and tune. 580hp.
Star lowered.
Replica AMG wheels with 275-35-18" nitto drags in the rear.
updated e63 taillights
LEDs throughout (not ricey)
Factory wheels have brand new snow tires mounted on them

Car is in great shape. Has a touched up scratch behind Left passenger door from previous owner which I didn't even notice until after I bought it. Otherwise it's mint. I've replaced intercooler pump with Bosch and also the motor mounts as preventative maintenance. Changed oil once a year. I've put on a little over 13000 miles in my 4 years of ownership. 100% trouble free.

Finally, what should I ask for this beast before I post it for sale? I won't be able to buy the car I want till I save for atleast another year. Would it be worth selling it then or now? Not sure how much more it will depreciate by then.

it wasn't there earlier.. honest

I would keep it for another year, it won't depreciate much more in another year

I would probably put it up at 18K and go from there? Guy here just bought one with 120K miles for 12.5, I bought my '03 with 40K miles for 20, and have seen numbers for everything in between
