Well I've no idea about that particlular car but the dealers usually whack a few extras on a model which is being phased out, stick a "special edition" sticker on it and try selling it off before the new stock comes in.
So what are these extras then? Like you said, alloys for a start. You can also get different combinations of the following depending what came stock on the original model: e/s/r, e/w, c/l, airbags, spoiler, floormats, maybe front lips, foglights etc.
If you want to know about a specific car/model then you're best bet is to ask in the appropriate forum.

Dealer groups (watch the local car ads and see what "dealer group" sponsors the ad..."Northeast Honda Dealers," "Tri-state Honda Dealers," etc.) and, sometimes, the manufacturer will put a group of options together, tag it with a "limited edition", "special edition", or "Joe Namath Edition" badge...and get rid of the last of a model run. It happens all the time. Sometimes, the dealer or dealer group will put out a special edition just to move a slow-selling model. These sort of "special editions" are typically not more valuable or desired. It's just another way to get rid of cars.
