What's so special about the Series 51 aside from the funky interior?

Here is fragment from the press release.

Named after the first year Bentley officially established a styling department, the Series 51 cars will pay homage to the Bentley’s of the 1950s. The Series 51 cars will feature a highly-distinctive interior color palette and unique exterior design cues.

Series 51 Continentals will feature a three-tone interior, complete with contrasting stitching and piping. The Series 51 Continental GTC slated for the Frankfurt stage will feature Imperial Blue as a main and secondary hide, Linen seat and door inserts and Newmarket Tan as the accent color.

Other interior enhancement will include a range of premium materials for the dashboard and center console, as well as color-matched floor mats and trunk carpet.

The exterior of the Series 51 cars will feature 20-inch 14-spoke polished Diamond wheel with a dark center cap and unique ‘51’ badging. Customers can also opt for a two-tone paint job to compliment the car’s interior colors.

I still don't understand how this warrants a new "edition". Can't any client spec out a GTC this way if they wanted?
