They can’t be considered used because they have never being titled. At least that’s how it works in TX.
My vin #185, picked up May 29, passenger side Lumbar button there but inoperative. I then set up a "ticket" for it not functioning. I was all set to have service done on it Thursday. In mean time was reading all the fallout here. Eventually days got closer and I called (didn't feel like 2 hr round trip drive for nothing) service center. Spoke to a SA and he looked into it and as I was on the phone seems like he was just then reading Elon's message that that feature had been removed. Strange button there but not functioning. Hung up and right after, service desk called to confirm appointment. While on the phone,, I mentioned the recent finding and at the same time, the SA I had just spoken to met the service guy and no we were all on the same page. No lumbar passenger side. Seems to confirm, even within, tough to get updated info passed through the ranks.
I ended up asking Tesla about this and they said we would pay the price that the demo vehicle is listed for. Which sucks since my current order was back in April before the 2 price increases. Guess I will continue to wait for my order...

What site is everyone using to find inventory? I find that on Tesla.com the 200 mile radius thing isn’t helpful.
Same experience with me. I ended up emailing SA (contacted me via email after original order) after 4 days post-VIN and she checked on status and scheduled delivery.

I almost pulled the trigger on a demo car today. Most of these have FSD and if you take that off, according to my SA, you have to pay the updated price. So I'd have to pay $1500 more for a car with 1300 miles on it. Can't do that on principal alone.

How long do you have to accept Tesla Vision? I didn’t receive any email, just saw it by logging in. Even though I was given a VIN, will my delivery be delayed if I wait to accept Tesla Vision?
Also, I haven’t seen anyone post this Tesla Vision update table, figure I’d share a screenshot:

Pulled the trigger and ordered a MYP demo under a separate reservation but keeping the MY LR on order. Got the VIN immediately. I assume I can refuse delivery if it isn’t to my liking. TBH I always wanted a MYP but was forced to ‘settle’ for the MY LR due to my other half. This one doesn’t have FSD. Time will tell whether or not this was a wise decision but I was ok with the extra 100 and 3 point credit score decrease by reapplying.
I called the store and had a demo that matched my order assigned to me - I ended up saving $500. The VIN is in my account, just waiting for delivery.

Crossposting from CA Waiting Room:
OK I GAVE IN. I purchased a demo here in LA that had 347 miles on it (it's probably still there in the search results). I was also able to remove the FSD in my account after the fact. Easy peasy. It is not in my exact config--even better. It's in the config I really wanted and have been regretting not getting since day 1!
Original order: White on black, 20" Inductions, 5 seater, no tow no FSD.
Demo order: MSM on black, 19" Geminis*, 5 seater, no tow and removed FSD. VIN 161xxx. All in all there was a difference of $300ish in the order but I know that I'll be happier with MSM in the long run.
*I wish it had inductions but I can live with it, especially hearing all the curbing horror stories. My BF who will occasionally drive it is not exactly a careful one.
WHEW. Feels so weird dropping 58K on a sight unseen car just like that, but I'm happy with my choice. Hopefully I get the delivery text before the weekend. I wonder if they'll still deliver it to my house??? Hmmm...

I haven’t cancelled my original order yet. She and I have been thru so much these past couple months…I’ll have to find a way to let her down easy (aka get a hold of my SA and see if he can do anything about refunding that order fee.)

We found our configuration in a demo model locally. I can’t recall the vin cutoff for passenger lumbar, our VIN is 160xxx. I think it was in 180’s for the cutoff? Safe to say we will have it still?
I understand your reasoning and you state valid points but I don’t buy into all of it. At some point someone at the DC has to have visibility into the production distribution line. In terms of inventory, it’s dynamic and what’s true one moment can quickly change. It may also be true that the DA has more insight and can also work pending orders.
If the build date is before April 27, you should be fine.
