Strange information that you received. As stated on the Texas region thread, both "extra" cars had Overseas as the dealer that the cars were being delivered to. This implies one of several things:
1. The cars were ordered by another dealer and had them courtesy shipped to Overseas (I did this with my Z06) and then the dealer wholesaled them to Overseas
2. The "Sticker" was altered or produced by Overseas. The first is probably illegal (so unlikely) the other just doesn't correspond with what other manufacturers and may not be legal (so also unlikely)
3. Lotus Cars USA is aware of the action and produced the stickers (interesting possibility, but doesn't jive with some of their actions)
4. The GM ordered the cars "off list" or to fill spots vacated by listers that dropped due to the lack of LSD (but why Aztec Bronze?)
5. The person you spoke to at Lotus was mistaken
6. Another possibility I haven't thought of... you tell me
Another point to mention is that a representaive of another dealer said they were offered an extra car, but missed out due to timing or something (I don't remember the exact reason)

It just gets curiouser and curiouser
