In the grand scheme of things, interest generating products like the 62s are a drop in the bucket and a great value for a companies' bottom line. It's like giving the product a facelift without actually having to go through the trouble and expense of shaping new lines and revamping hardware.
Something similar happens in the world of high-priced wristwatches where "limited special editions" are released that consist of nothing more than a refinished dial and a display back. The product will get some press coverage and folks will be mildly interested. Heck - look at us! We're discussing Maybach. All it took was a lil' performance boost, a new nameplate and some nifty tailpipes. Not like a bespoke interior on a Maybach is special, right? They're all bespoke for cryin out loud!
