Yeh, these "special" models, often do feel like a last ditched attempt by Ferrari, and others, to squeeze a few more sales out of the old tooling. 

Porsche have it down to a science, they just delete options, and charge you a premium for taking stuff off the car. lol  As with their old Club Sport Carrera.  Such things as one sun visor were deleted, light bulb in the trunk, etc.  Performance figures, pretty much equal to the standard Carrera of the day as I remember, but ah, it was said to give you a more sporty feel.  Sure it did, look how much weight it removed from your wallet!! hee hee.
