Yeah, a Stage 2 car usually has about $20k in the motor, on top of a high dollar trans and several thousand in chassis modifications to handle the power. You have a stock motor in your car. The upgrades on the car are considered "old school" compared with todays technology, so even most of the performance upgrades aren't really worth too much. It looks as though the car is in very good shape, but its really not much more than a nice, slightly upgraded standard GN, and with 85k miles on it, its not a low mile car. I'd say you're in the $15k-$20k area, but this is just my opinion. It is a very nice looking car.
BTW a stage 2 motor is what they used in the indy 500, the bush grand national series (NASCAR), and a lot of dirt tracks back in the 80s. They were factory race engines. Its a completely different motor than the factory turbo buick motor.
To compare you need to find a GN in the 70,000 mile to 90,000 mile range, with minor upgrades that is very clean, and in very good shape. There will be a wide range of prices there.
