A: It's hard to answer this one for you or to give advice. They may just really want to sell a car and not have to give your money back. I hate to state the obvious- but car dealerships want to sell cars and it sounds like they are trying everyone way they can to sell you one. - You need to carefully review your paperwork and decide if this is the deal for you. You have a lot of "moving parts." First - you may want to totally undue the first transaction -so you are starting fresh. But then again read the paperwork and understand what is going on. If you are not sure you should seek legal counsel.
