What should I ask for my 04 Special ed Boxster S???

It's time to try something new. Going to put my baby up FS.
Hard to tell what I should ask. KBB has gone up for this model since I bought her 3 years ago?

Most of this is from memory, I keep a detailed spreadsheet with everything I have done on my home computer.
I bought her with 20,000 miles about 3 years ago.
Extended Warranty 6 years or 75K, transferable and has 3 years/47k left.
Every option except nav. 6 speed manual

Here are the stats on my Boxster.
VIN# WP0CB29874U661258
****
2004 Boxster S special edition, 550 Spyder with 28,000 miles.
Porsche Boxster S 550 Spyder (50 Years Anniversary Edition) (2004) - GotBroken.Com
Near perfect in and out.
Hard top, I found a new one that the dealer still had, have not seen one on a special edition?
They were a $4500 option from the dealer.
Bose sound system with 6 CD changer.
Covered and garaged when not in use.

****
Impecably maintained!
Within the last 2 years
New battery
Water pump, thermostat, coolant (water pumps have been known to fail and kill engines)
Spark plugs, belt, air filter
All 4 wheel bearings, only one was making a noise. I bought the Porsche tool to do these. Porsche charges $500-800 a wheel for this.
Dustless brake pads, stainless steel brake lines, recent brake fluid flush
Recent engine oil and filter, usually done every 2-3k
Transaxial fluid changed
New air oil separator
Smart top relay, like the new Porches you can put your top up or down with one touch and moving under 30mph.
Front bumper removed and radiators cleaned properly, repainted bumper since it was off!
All inside and outside lights switched to LED.
Front and rear trunk struts (shocks) replaced
Hard wired for V1 radar detector etc etc
****
All manuals, 2 keys, receipts and pics of all work done.
Various manuals and books from Porsche of the anniversary edition, collectable stuff?
Car cover, front bra, thick hanging bag for hardtop.
Tires are PS3 Michelins with 80% tread left.
****
Kelly Blue Book Value
Retail, from a dealer $34,964
Private party $31,600
Trade in $27,600

What price should I ask for her?
Thanks for your input.

Just a few pics
