Default How much for used G35 Coupe?

My sister is thinking about selling her G35 coupe and getting an IS250. The only thing is she doesn't know how much she could get for her G35. I looked at kelly blue book but still wasn't too sure so I thought I'd ask you guys. You think at least 15K?
03 G35 Blk/Tan Coupe - Premium Package, Auto
43k Miles, minor dings but the right front fender is pretty dinged up, no accidents.
Mods:
Borla Headers
Borla Catback Exhaust
HKS Grounding Kit
Injen Cold Air Intake
High Flow Cats
Custom Pioneer AVIC-N1, but the touchscreen sensor is off
Technosquare Upgradable ECU (tuned for the parts she has)

I'd return it to stock, part out the aftermarket parts, and ask for KBB dealer price OBO .

my clean, black on black 04 g35 coupe auto with 35k miles (aero, premium, perfomance package with 19" forged rims) at the time of trade-in (feb.) was $17k. like others mentioned, your best bet is to put the car back to stock. i had no trouble parting out aftermarket parts on g35driver, my350z or ebay..

maybe 15-20k depending on trade or private sale, does she have maintenance records, those add value and or sometimes make the car sell faster, dealers hit you hard when they see body damage, does she know how slow an IS250 is compared to a Gcoupe, IS is a nice car but the #1 complaint I hear from friends when they want a new car is it's slow compared to what I had, I did not realize that on the test drive

the auto will hurt you since most people want stick in a sports car but $17k sound right private party. I just sold my 03 Z with 89,000 miles for $16k Touring model with Nav (fully optioned).

if it's an 03, i'm not sure getting anything above 15K at the dealership will be possible, especially with the aftermarket mods.
