- owns a sports car
- used to own a 92 Sentra
- current DD is 95 Nissan Tsuru aka Sentra
- OP is around 46 years of age with a EVOC
- OP claims to be a good driver, but admits to breaking the law by driving slightly over the speed limit...which is OK because he has EVOC and performance driving training and is able to handle pressure situations
- OP currently holds a sales position and has a university education.
damn OP...tell us more about yourself.

Your not a bright cookie are you?
If indeed it was one of the 8 cars to reach production/road use then I hate to tell you its worth a HELL of a lot more than 15k. Not to mention if it has the sero kit then its worth even more as only 3 of those were true production cars.
But judging by what you have done to it, you own a old Camero with a knock off bodykit and some bolt ons taken from better vehicles.
And a stock 96 WRX ran a near 13 flat back in 96. Now if we modify that car the same as you have done then, yes, its still faster....and worth more.....and would ignite the fury or envy rage amongst the most mundane of minivan drivers.

Personally I would have gone with. 
More of an "insult" towards me. Seeing as I'm not bragging about my car here or anywhere else for that matter.
