More details to this question:
Yesterday I went to a Cadillac dealer to lease a 2014 XRS Cadillac. The dealer showed me a "demo"car which my wife and I liked very much. The car had 2,900 miles on it and was driven solely by a mgr who confirmed the cars drivability and features. The sales person drew up a proposal for us to see if the 36 or 39 mo. payment with X down was to our liking. We opted for 39 months and $3000 down, and the payment came out to $527.78 a month + tax. I asked for him to quote me a trade in price for my 2002 Mercury Marquis, but as I didn't have it with me -- the salesman said bring it tomorrow when we conclude the deal. I brought the car in for their evaluation, and they offered a price which I didn't accept. The salesman then said "Oh by the way, the car I showed yesterday is not your car; your car is outside? The car outside was a similar Dem model, but with less options and a lower cost, but this car was never shown nor never mentioned befoe.

Obviously, there is no agreement here, so its hard to claim fraud on the deal you didnt go through with. In any event, the proposal or sale documents would be a big factor in such an evaluation, as to which car was being discussed based upon VIN# or description.
