Can the people at a car dealership change the price of a car AFTER we sign the papers. BTW it was a Porsche?

My mom went to the dealership to buy a truck for her and to look at a Nissan 350z for me. Turned out the 350z had been sold earlier that day. The sales person told her that she could buy a used Porsche Boxster for the amount she said she was able to pay. IMO a Porsche is better than a 350z any day (dont argue about that plz) My mom stayed there for at least 3 hours signing all the papers, and they finalized the price for which she was to pay monthly. I was at home studying for my exams, so i had no idea i could actually get a Porsche. Also, it was raining and the windshield wipers on the Boxster didn't work, so she couldn't bring it home that night. Anywho, the point is that before we could pick it up the next day, the dealership called and stated that they had upped the price of both the truck and the car. I can't tell you how ******** mad i was, now we can't afford both cars, and they said we technically owned the truck since she drove it home with her!Can the people at a car dealership change the price of a car AFTER we sign the papers.

There is something amiss in the story..



The dealership can't arbitrarily%26quot;up the price%26quot; on a car. If you mean the PAYMENTS went up, that is another matter. That is likely due to a bank approval call, and not the price of hte vehicles.



If they are just changing the purcahse price of the cars, then the purcahses are no longer valid. You don't have to sign any new documents, just hand back the keys and leave.



If they are chaning the monthly payments, you can still walk away from the deal. But its far more likley this is the case than a %26quot;price change%26quot;.



So - I think you need to get a little more facts in here. I will be happy to help however I canCan the people at a car dealership change the price of a car AFTER we sign the papers. BTW it was a Porsche?
Call the sales manager and get out of this contract. Park the truck at the dealership. You cna't change the price of the vehicle after you sign the papers. And you do not %26quot;technically%26quot; own the truck if they changed the terms of the contract without your consent. All you have to do is compare your copy of the contract with their copy of the contract. If the sales manager is not cooperative, talk to the owner of the dealership. If he/she is not cooperative, file a complaint with the state Attorney general office. Then walk away from the deal. If that does not work, call your local TV station. They love exposing businesses that rip people offCan the people at a car dealership change the price of a car AFTER we sign the papers. BTW it was a Porsche?
It sounds as if the dealership is trying to pull one over on your mom. If she had signed papers (a loan contract) than that contact is binding. They can't just arbitrarily change the dollar amounts and say %26quot;we've changed our minds%26quot;. That's the whole point of a contract! I assume your mom had to take out a loan to purchase both vehicles and she's probably combining everything into one loan. If that's the case than there is one bank or finance company issuing the loan. The dealership has 4 days (may vary between states) to finalize the lending process. If that fails on their end and they require more money (ie increase the price of the vehicle) you have every right to walk away because they are not abiding by the signed original contract. It's their fault not yours. You mother may have to return the truck but under no circumstances should she be penalized for mileage or wear and tear etc. The dealership needs to modify the contract not you. Also check the fine print and make sure that the contract specifies the original cost of the vehicles, interest rates, terms etc. By no means is your mother obligated to sign a second contract! Have her bring a friend along so there is someone else hearing everything and not just your mom. Some contracts may even have a %26quot;right to rescind %26quot; clause which gives you, the consumer, 3 days to back out of the loan. Although that usually doesn't apply to auto loans anymore. Hope this helps.Can the people at a car dealership change the price of a car AFTER we sign the papers. BTW it was a Porsche?
They're crooks, and they do stuff like that. If you take one back for service, they'll do it more.
