I recently when to purchase a vehicle, upon walking into the showroon I found the car I wanted. I sat down with a saleman and he informed me that this is a special edition and only 2 were made. I put $100 deposit down on the car and the saleman said he would put the car in tha back so it does not get sold.
I came back the following day with family members and test drove the car. I sat down with the financial department went over the numbers and signed the vehicle purchase agreement. I informed them my current lease was not yet up and I would be back 10 days later to trade in my vehicle and pick up my new one.
When I arrived back at the dealership they informed me my car had been sold even though I was the first one to sign the agreement. They cannot get me the same car since it was a special edition but they offered me $500 towards a new different car. In the meantime I added the car to my insurance policy so it would be insured when I drove out of the dealership that day. Now someone else was driving a car that I was insuring. Can I sue my dealership for a breach in contract and what would I be entitled to?
