No offense, but you need to price that car at about $14,000 max.

none taken, but the NADA value is $16,982. So I am already $200 under value. If you don't mind, how did you come up with $14,000?

Almost 17k for a 4 yr old 2 owner car w/ 53k on it? You'll be lucky to get 13k. You need to price accordingly if you say it "MUST GO MUST GO MUST GO". If a private party is going to pay that much money for a car they are generally going to want a warranty or at least the illusion of comfort of buying from a dealer.
Wish you luck, you're going to need it.

You've asked for feedback, and in doing so have bumped your car to the top of the page, which is clearly a side benefit of asking.
Now, if it were such a great deal, it would have sold. The market for 2 door used convertibles is thin. When the economy sucks, people don't go out and pay a premium for cars or boats (look around, plenty of both for sale).
When it's priced right, it will sell. Now, the upside is, Summer is right around the corner.
I would bet 14 would make it go.

Edmunds private party sale, you're quoting dealer retail.
I would run values at edmunds.com, kbb.com and nadaguides.com and see what you come up with for private sale values.
I bet if you put it in on craigslist for $14K and you are willing to take $13K you can move it.

Na, no offense, I took what the private party value was and took a couple hundred dollars off of that. It was just a random last couple of numbers. I think it looks better than the 99 on the end.
