Generally speaking, the older and higher mileage and more "niche" a model of car gets, the less accurate the KBB/Edmunds values become, because they are just aggregating auction and dealer sales data. As more and more of the sales happen privately and only the worst of the worst gets run through auction houses, the values become completely inaccurate. My M3 is worth like $3k according to KBB, but in the real world it's worth far more than that to everyone except DJ.
I think you're right to not set the price to match KBB, but you should have some other listings, ideally showing the car sold, as evidence to justify your asking price.
