The dealer told me that since they were such slow movers (sales-wise), they use them for loaners. It's a great ploy, too: I wanted to trade mine in and keep it. Probably would have, too, but the MC40 is severely lacking in amenities, and not factory-customizable.

But again, the MC40 package is a bunch of stickers and different seats. It does not automatically have the JCW kit.
The MC40 loaner came from Prestige Mini in Mahwah, NJ. It came as a suprise to me too that they were using this car as a loaner.

what the MC40 really came with
This is taken directly from the Resume that came with the car.
"40th anniversary decal, replica bonnet decals, plaque engraved with Paddy Hopkirk's autograph, individually numbered Monte Carlo commemorative badge (only 1000 MC40 vehicles will be produced), gear **** with Monte Carlo inlay, 3 spoke steering wheel, driving lamps, carbon fiber dash,17 in. special wheels with run-flat tires, commemorative sport seats, xenon headlamps, chrome grille, magnetic racing numbers, auxiliary performance gauges"
So yes you are paying a premium for decals.
That was what couldn't be ordered on other cars... well kinda
Here is what you could order on another Cooper S (I'm only going to list the features that would come as options. The standard stuff like ac. wont be listed.)
DSC, "Sport Suspension PLUS"
