Update: The car is back, without the annoying rattle. Dropped off the car first thing yesterday morning and the exhaust replacement was done by noon. They even did a mini-detail because they forgot to wash and vacuum it before I picked it up last time.

I also think VPC cars have much fewer instances of the heat shield rattle, could be wrong on that
Yep, looks like a random part failure... although it should have been caught at VPC because the rattle existed from delivery. That's why I thought "they all do that." My car was the first MSPPK in the area, but the dealer has since delivered another one, which is why they decided to fix the rattle.

The heat shields are definitely not a problem.
