I did some research. The T translates to 2SS. It does not denote 1LE. It is confusing but what you quoted assumes you already know you have a 1LE.
If you are really on the hunt you should buy a subscription to Compnine. You are looking for RPO 1LE.
That doesn't mean that one is NOT a 1LE. It lists a 3.91 axle which is 1LE-specific. The tire size also matches. Does this one have a flat bottom wheel?

Yeah, and it looks suede along with the shifter.

I finally got the Carfax to load.
It isn't terribly interesting in the areas I was concerned about but it did have 3 owners.
Owner 1 was about 2 years in NC, about 15k driven.
Owner 2 was about 1-1/2 years in NC, about 5k driven.
Owner 3 was a little under 1 year in VA, about 8k driven.
Everything else looks totally fine. Short ownership is somewhat forgivable given that this is a special trim level car. It just seems like a thing that happens.
Someone is going to figure out that this is a 1LE. I'd get on it if you really want it.

Car is gone. I will keep an eye out for it getting relisted correctly. I have just started looking seriously so I am a little hesitant to jump on the first thing I see. Maybe I will regret that, but realistically, I wouldn't have been able to go look at it until next weekend.

Good news. I didn't find the only one. This is even cheaper with a little more miles:

This is a little more than I wanted to pay for one of these, but... they seem to have configured it the way GM should have from the beginning...

Interesting idea... Get this and wait until a ZL1 is cheaper. Or wait until a 1LE is cheaper/available.
