The fact that the name on the contract is incorrect is irrelevant, as long as the vehicle is accurately described, and the actual buyer is the person who signed the contract.

This is because a court will imply the necessary terms to make the contract valid as long as it can be proved that the parties intended to contract -- and they obviously did, because your boyfriend signed the contract and took possession of the vehicle.

If you believe that you were defrauded into purchasing a vehicle that was in condition different than represented, then you can sue for misrepresentation. But, you will need witnesses to testify to the salesperson's false representations about the vehicle, or you will not be able to carry the burden of proof -- unless there are advertisements that falsely describe the vehicle.

Hope this helps.
