I was told that white leather and a white roof was rare on my 2000 Convertible, so I decided to spring for a Marti report, turns out it is pretty rare. 
Marti Report came today

I actually think Paint/Trim only refers to exterior and interior colors, and does not take into account top color. With that said, i don't think the oxford white top was offered with any other color interior but I could be wrong.
BTW "retail" on your report means a customer ordered it specifically this way. If it's dealer stock, that's usually designated by "stock". My guess is someone really wanted the oxford white interior because I never saw one back in the day when these things were new and I was checking them out often up until i bought a 2003GT new.
You could spring for a personalized statistics report that will purposely try to break it down to the lowest combo of options to try and make it a 1 of 1. But be warned, sometimes it works out in a silly way. For instance, you have block heater, so it might end up breaking it down to a 1 out of 100K made based on having the block heater. I did this on my fox and it was a 1 out of 215K due to the rare factory block heater.
I have one for my 2000 GT vert. Nothing special about it but one thing I think was cool is it was ordered in June of '99 (retail) and built on Aug 9th making it one of the first few hundred 2000's built.

I know that the interior trim code doesn't depict the roof color. I suppose they could of oredered a different color roof with the white interior, but I'm not sure. The car could of been special ordered for a sale but that sale must of fell through as this car was built in Dec 99 and sold in Aug 2000. I bought the car from my friend, who's mother bought it brand new, and she gave it to him in 2011 because she was offered $3500 for it on a trade and it only had 30000 kilommetres on it which is equal to 18000 miles. She was smart enough to turn that down. He kept it until 2024 and that's when I bought it. It was always garaged, never winter driven and my friend added 40000 km (24000 miles) to it in 13 years. I'm lucky to know the complete history. I don't want to bother with a personlalized statistics report, I'm sastified with what the Marti report provided. I've searched these cars for sale all over the US and Canada and white on white is definitely not common. I wasn't looking for a car, but being a Mustang guy for years, I just couldn't let it get away...LOL...I didn't even like the white interior at first but it's growning on me. Cool that you have such an early production number!
