I’m surprised somewhat less by that and more by the fact that the staff isn’t doing a better job keeping them clean.

After all, how dirty could a typical Tesla storegoer be? I can’t imagine the answer to that would be “very”.

A new pair of dark-coloured jeans is enough to mess up light coloured seats; it's probably not 'dirt' in the traditional sense. (I agree with you that the staff should be ensuring the showroom stock is spotless.)

You'd be surprised. And what makes you think that the only person coming through a store in the largest mall in the city of Houston is necessarily a Tesla shopper. But largely, just repeated entry and exit into these showroom vehicles probably simulates 5 years of wear for every year they sit.

I don’t. I said “Tesla storegoer”. If a person enters a mall in which there is a Tesla store, they do not become a “Tesla storegoer” if they don’t enter...the Tesla store.
