That may be a mileage entry mistake made by the third party vendor performing the service. The problem with car fax is that irt may not pick up on lots of repairs for damage not subjected to an accident report or reported to an insurance company.
Interesting story is that I recently cleared on Autocheck entry for my buddy so he could sell his Mansory Veyron for $2.0 mm. The Carfax was clearn but buyer's agent ran an Autocheck which showed rear impact . . . a rear impact that never happened. My buddy had the car since new and I spoke to the guy that worked on it throughout the years as well. We finally found the problem after lots of research and chasing down a report with an incorrect number.
Someone had apparently parked their bicycle behind my buddy's Veyron. My buddy left and the little bicycle beotch's pants were apparently tight enough to impede oxygen flow to rational parts of their brain . . . He allegedly came out, found his bicycle on the ground, called the police and made a report. My buddy's tag is easy because it was custom. Cops made the police report, my buddy never knew about it and Autocheck picked up on it and reported it as a rear impact.
This "rear impact" was in the process of cancelling a $2.0 mm sale and would have reduced the value of this very special 1 of 1 in the US Mansory Veyron by about 20% or $400k as there was rumors circulating one of the 3 Mansory Veyrons in the world was wrecked and converted to Veyron to conceal the prior wreck (rumor, not fact as no one would pay $1.2 mm Euro for a Mansory package for a wrecked Veyron) and we knew the other owners as well.
I contacted Autocheck and initially threatened suit, but when we found out what happened every had a good laugh, they took the little bicycle beotch's temper tantrum off the Autocheck report, the sale was consummated and the this very special car now has a properly clean history.

I actually left out another interesting detail.
The accident report was made in like 2011 or 2012 and the bicyclists had long since moved so we could not contact him to get him to admit he did not actually see "impact" if it became necessary. Because the Autocheck report said 6 years ago, my buddy was doing all kinds of mental hurdles trying to figure out if maybe he let someone drive it back then, even a valet, who damaged it and had it repaired telling him and etc. before we were actually toi put hands on the actual accident report.
Thankfully, Autocheck revised their report just based on the details and information contained in the accident report so I did not have to track down the bicycle owner who made the report.

Prices are all the place right now. CPO cars with less than 30k miles are being listed in $80k range. Previously wrecked non-CPOs are in the $60k range. I dunno, Blue . . . it really depends upon how quickly want to sell or if you get lucky and find people looking for a Blue. This is can season so the time to sell us now.

cargurus.com has been the best for me. Sold my wife’s 997.2 cab in like 48 ish hours and had 2 full price offers and one for $1k less than asking price all come in on day 2.
i listedit in cars.com as well, but the 3 offers came in through cargurus. I usually shop cars.com first as I think it is easier to navigate. I NEVER use or look at autotrader for whatever reason. Like the other two much better for both buying and selling. Good luck.

Three Wheelin'
Cab and PDK aren't as desirable as a coupe with a manual, but you should still have no trouble selling it. Does it have other desirable options such as full leather and 18-ways? If it were a coupe and manual, you could get $75k, so maybe mid to high 60's? I would list it for mid to low 70's, just to see where the market is at.
