Thanks for the chance to assist

YOur in a tough spot. Under contract law, when the contract is complete (both parties agree on the terms) then the contract is in force. If you do not fulfill the terms, the dealership can take steps to enforce the contract, including steps to force you to purchase. So, this is the worst case.

That said, your facts are compelling since you never took delivery, you may be able to convince them to back down on this. I would focus on that aspect. Perhaps you can negotiate with them, perhaps even agree to a "fee" for the costs to the dealership for this...if you can negotiate a settlement you can avoid a legal battle. In the end, you will not likely win that battle

That means that the day you sign the seller agrees to deliver the car. Did that not happen?
