imho, on a 13ish year old car with 50K miles and known mechanical challenges, one could argue that all the money you've spent should be considered "maintenance" and not necessarily command a price premium, especially when you consider aftermarket IMS fixes also need replacement with time.

The luggage sounds intriguing and could be worth something extra to a certain buyer, but may not be everyone's cup of tea and may be something a buyer who pays a premium might simply sell if not desired to recoup some money.

That said, it could still be a $35-40K car given the small run and folks appreciation of "limited run" cars..
