Might want to search for a 40th anniversary car….it’ll have several of your desired, and rare options by default: LSD, aero side skirts, hardback sport seats (although many have the optional comfort seats instead), exclusive GT silver color, as well as X51 engine package & M030 (US version, not ROW) suspension.
I believe they all will have a sunroof as it was standard and not sure it could be deleted.

I was looking for a 40 but couldn’t pass up on this an hour from home last March.

Painted hardbacks and rear console would have been a nice add - I painted the console and may do the seats. After years of a ‘full leather policy’ this one came with buffalo plastic and granite and I love it for this car.

Not sure how many sunroof delete cars were made for the USA, probably not many. The rest could be had
