Valuation 2003 6MT

Thinking of selling my pampered 135k mile 2003 Black/Black Acura CL-S 6MT. Just not quite ready to put the For Sale sign on her, because I'm having a really hard time figuring out what she's worth. There is a huge range of values on the internet, and sadly some of these babies have found themselves on buy-here-pay-here lots, where they get "no respect". I think mine's special, because of its history. I've owned the car since 30k miles--bought from a similarly type-A original owner. It has only seen Royal Purple oil-at religious intervals. 105k service done by me on my hoist, with meticulous attention to the Factory Service Manual- which I have. Has $1000 set of newer Michelin Pilot Sport A/S's. EBS dimpled rotors and Hawk pads. Stainless lines. Brake pedal feel is better than new. She's very unmolested. Leather is good-excellent. Rear seats have no wear. Not a single door ding; only a left rear quarter repair from a parking lot incident many years ago (which I supervised and forced all new parts and no, I mean "no" fillers). Clear coat is in excellent shape. Even the headlights show barely any signs of wear or oxidation. Car literally goes garage-to-garage during my work commute, and if God -forbid, I have to park in a public parking lot, I'm the guy at the end of the lot. Runs without any issues. Gets reliably 29-30mpg on the highway. And here's the clincher: I have records of every drop of gas, and service since 30k in a notebook in the center console.

Don't ask me why I'd even consider selling her, other than I'd like to try driving something else in my lifetime...and this one will never break! Anyone have any ideas on price? Does service history really matter to anyone with these cars? Any recent sales here on the forum? NADA is around $8000. I'm really stuck.
