MVPA - “New - Previous service/demo vehicle”

MVPA - “New - Previous service/demo vehicle”

I recently purchased a new Model Y Performance, but it arrived with damage that required a full front bumper replacement.
The MVPA (Motor Vehicle Purchase Agreement) lists the vehicle as a previous service/demo car. However, the dealer insists it was brand new and only got damaged during delivery from the factory. Tesla is offering a discount to account for the repair, but something feels off.
Is it possible the car was originally flagged as a demo/service vehicle at the factory and later changed to inventory status? Or could the “previous service/demo” label have been applied because of the repair work?
Has anyone else experienced something similar with a Tesla delivery? Would appreciate any insight. Thanks!

Lowering MYP

Considering Unplugged Performance moderate lowering spring or Mountain Pass Performance coilover kit. Besides the price difference can anyone vouch for which might be the better option?

VIN Removed from App

Has anyone been assigned a VIN then later had it removed? How long until a new one was assigned? Delivery was supposed to be a week ago and keep rolling a day each day and now I no longer have a VIN assigned. Very frustrating. NorCal if that makes a difference. Thanks!

$6200 for 4 side/rear XRB window tint, 8 year ceramic XPEL coating and full XPEL stealth PPF.

Is this a decent deal?

Also does anyone have recommendations for Fusion plus satin ceramic coating vs XPEL premium ceramic coating on a stealth PPF?

Thanks!

Looking at potentially buying a Model Y Performance and trying to decide if the new Juniper refresh is actually worth paying more for versus buying a lightly used older model.

A few things I’m curious about from people who have driven/owned both. Read up a lot on them and have seen a lot of stated improvements.

  • Is the interior materially nicer, or is it mostly the same with minor cosmetic tweaks?
  • Is the ride quality/suspension really that much better, or is it being overstated?
  • Is cabin noise noticeably improved?
  • How much better is overall build quality/fit and finish?
  • Any other meaningful upgrades I may be overlooking besides the obvious facelift?
  • Is the sound system really better?

My hesitation is that I can find used pre-refresh Ys for significantly less and not deal with depreciation of a used.

Would love honest opinions from anyone who has driven both.
