New Bryant A/C 2.0 Ton - cased "N" versus "V" condenser coil

Hi All - getting new Bryant furnace (preferred two stage - 820TA36070V14, 70k GTUs) and Preferred single-stage A/C 126S. I'm being offered option between the Bryant preferred cased "V" coil or cased "N" coils. Based on research I completed reading that "V" coil is Bryant's response to new efficiency standards. However, I'm also reading people saying the "V" coil has issues (microchannel?).

My primary issue for the A/C unit is performance, reliability, and longevity of the unit, not efficiency standards. Any suggestions on which way I should go with the coil?

Thanks for your help!

V coils are new technology, n coils are phasing out

They said they were out of the V coil so they installed the n coil. Hoping I'm not missing out on increased performance. Thanks for the response.
To give you an idea of performance difference between the two coils -after 10 years, there is a slight chance you may have missed out on $20 in savings, pending location. Both designs work fine. With the new SEER2 specs the government pushed on the manufactures, they have to get creative to squeeze every penny out of the coils. You are not missing out on anything.
