They will either be sold at auction or dismantled due to not meeting specific regulations due to them being press vehicles.

so they are not officially part of the supposed limited number?

No, they are press vehicles. Most press vehicles never see the light of day afterwords.

They arent the same as final production versions.

They have manual controls for AC, no headlight washers, and the inside of the trunk and hood/fenders isnt even painted. Thats just what I saw in 5 mins of looking at them.
