What differences r there between US JCW vs European JCW ?

I am just wondering what are the differences in specs between the 2 continents?
My specs had sport suspension ( not the JCW sport suspension), CSC 3 runflats, carbon fiber rear spoiler, Body kit with brake air duct, panel air filter, normal 3 spoke steering wheels with multi function , the 113 model wheels and 4 pot brembo.
I feel that the JCW models should be fully loaded ie with its JCW sports suspension, recaro bucket seats, cone air filter , JCW strut bar, cross drilled disc brakes, JCW leather steering wheels with carbon inset, carbon fiber interior n exterior as standard.

There is no universal European spec. Every country decides separately what to put on each model. In the UK, they include the JCW aero kit, JCW steering wheel, and JCW floor mats (and the price reflects it) but Germany doesn't include any of those items as standard in a JCW.

Otherwise, the factory JCW isn't much different in other countries outside the US. I think the stock suspension (not even the sport suspension) is standard in all countries (btw, your sport suspension if you have it was optional).

MINI doesn't offer a cone filter, do they?
