No offense but if it's "clean as hell with no rust" why did it need a new paint job after 11 years? Without pictures it's hard to give a fair evaluation.

We have had the jeep for 6 years, my wife wanted a different color if that is ok
I am not looking to sell the jeep on this site or I would have not posted on this forum but rather the "for sale" one
Just was asking based on I described what would be a fair range of prices.
But thank you for your reply

The low miles is a big plus and if the frame truly has no rust I would think it would be worth around $9000 here in southern Indiana. I think that repainting it a different color hurt it some but if it's a quality paint job maybe not so much. In my experience KBB valued my Jeep at $7000 for my area and I've had two offers for over $10k (it's not even for sale).... so I don't trust KBB on jeeps personally.

Rust free with good paint, it’d be at least a $10k Jeep on any of my local lots. 4.0 or 4 cylinder? If it’s a 4.0 I wouldn’t be afraid to ask $10k, maybe $9500 and settle for no less than $8,500.
