When you sign a Bill of sale and you put money down you have signed a legal binding contract binding you to the vehicle. There is no way out of the deal at that point unless you don’t get approved for the financing etc.

If this advertisement came out before the day you walked in then you have a case, but if it came out after then you don’t but you said you saw it shortly after therefore you are safe.

However they can still hold you to this deal regardless of the missrepresentation on their behalf only if they choose to reduce the price of the vehicle to the price on the advertisement.

There is always a way out of a contract and can be broken anytime.

Also, the contract I signed also specifically stated right on the back “Failure to Pay”, expenses would be taken from my deposit and that’s it.

No one can force someone to buy a car, there is no Legal way to do so. It just wouldn’t make sense. They can’t force me to take out 20Gs from my account and hand it to them. That’s what a deposit is for. To keep it if I back out or to reduce the amount they give back if I do infact back out.

Just like any deposit in this world, it’s to put down and keep if a buyer backs out of a deal.
