Rarity & value
Reliable production counts and comparable completed-sale evidence have not been verified sufficiently to rank this version’s grades. We do not label a grade “rarest” or “most valuable” without that evidence.
Compare documented specification, structural condition, maintenance and the complete quoted cost. Original trim level alone does not establish resale value.
