[disregards the identical cars]

Sure your car could be the only one with a given set of popular options and an AM radio but      disregards the identical cars in all respects except built with an  AM-FM or AM-8track. Compared to a 69 GT vert with a SCJ 4 speed is more value relevant.

.
......................There are no identical cars, that's what makes it " 1 of 1 "
Marti applies the same yardstick to vehicles 1948 - 2020. Your 69 GT-SCJ-4 speed is rare if it's the only one. How a car is optioned always has been the deciding factor on rare, doesn't matter the year.
For the 2014 MY, there were 134.345 Mustangs.
That # becomes 4,816 GT500 coupes.
That # becomes 600 painted SGM.
That # becomes 21 with black Recaros / red accents.
That # becomes 5 with the glass roof...............ETC..

[rare.]

That is one heck of a lot of cars.

Not exactly rare.

.
Had a " 1 of 2 " 2011, sold it in Sept. 2017.
Have a " 1 of 1 " 2014, both documented by Marti..

[fastest NO !]

Ladies and Gentlemen this us the best performing and fastest mustang to date.

Everything thing pryor to this is  "OBSOLETE" !

.
Best performing, maybe,.......................fastest NO !
Like everything Ford & other OEM sell,.................................it's a good starting point !!
.

You are correct the 14 is a "factory" higher top end mustang,  that is the only category it outperforms the newer GT500.

Everything else the newer mustang is superior.

And by the way the new mustang GT500's 180-mph governor can and has been compromised already.....
.
0 to 60, according to Ford is the same.
24 mpg,.....................understand the new one likes gas station, so say it's owners.
Once you alter a governor, are we still talking " factory " specs ?
Don't feel bad, have had the same conversation on other sites, for the same statement..

Did you get a VIN yet ??

Congrats on the order,..................what kind of ADM did your dealer slap on the deal ??

Interesting thread, several comments on " how many were made ", as if that makes it worth more money !
How many were made only makes it rare, & doesn't add to it's value.
2 examples:

2014 Shelby GT500 - Marti report states it's " 1 of 1 ".
.


.
2017 F150 Lariat - Marti report states it's " 1 of 1 ".
.

.
.
On a side note, - The Prudhomme editions are streetable,............this one is CSM 07DP0002, Bob the owner lives in Pa.
.

Added some CF under the hood, the cover on the de-gas tank is a prototype, not yet listed on the MFG. site..

[you]

You should buy the car " you " want, optioned to be used the way " you " intend to drive it.
Based on polls, the glass roof is the option most people wished they'd ordered.
I don't & never have considered resale on a purchase.
................How rare ?
I ordered a 2011 GT500, one option base model, my Marti report tells me it's " 1 of 2 "
I ordered a 2014 GT500, two option base model, my Marti report tells me it's " 1 of 1 "
I ordered a 2017 F150, Lariat with packages & options, my Marti report tells me it's " 1 of 1 "
My taste in vehicles appears to not be too main stream.
What you think may be a " rare " low # build car, can't be determined from spreadsheets.

Congrats & good luck with the next chapter of your life.
I left N.J. for several years during my Navy career, for all it's shortcomings, I came back here to retire.
Any idea if or who will take your place ??
