We are considering a Christmas 2014 trip. I was wondering whether you can get additional FP+ times if you attend MVMCP, since it is a separately ticketed event.

Also, if you rent DVC points for a stay through an outside site (like Dave's) can you still reserve FP+ 60 days in advance? We are considering our options and renting points for a studio seems to be comparable to the price of staying in a moderate resort, except you get the benefits of staying at a deluxe.

A- FPs were not available during the parties in the past.
B - yes you will get MBs staying as a DVC renter/owner.

The costs do appear to be the same, but be prepared that they may not have availability for the resort (or classification) you are looking for.

I booked a week for December 2014 earlier this month and this is all that was available:

Animal Kingdom Villas, Studio-Standard
Animal Kingdom Villas, Studio-Savannah View
Beach Club Villas, Studio
Boardwalk Villas, Studio-Preferred
Old Key West, Studio
Saratoga Springs Resort, Studio
Villas at Wilderness Lodge, Studio
Bay Lake Towers, Studio-Lake View
Bay Lake Towers, Studio-Theme Park View


We really wanted a standard view at the Boardwalk, but ended up having to spend more money for Beach Club.
 
You'll be able to enter the MVMCP @ 3:45 and can pre-select Fp+ for the 4:00 - 7:00 p.m. time period. Rides are typically walk-on during the parties especially if you plan on riding while a parade is running.
 

Because the party is separate, they don't even scan MB unless your tickets are linked to your MB, no FP+ selections during the party. The lines are short anyway. We went in November (two parties, long story), and I was able to ride SM back to back with a total wait time of like 10 minutes for both (the second time was longer), and BTM was like a 5-10 min wait.
