QUESTION
Can I sue auto dealer for selling a vehicle that they promised to hold?

More details to this question:
I was looking for a vehicle. The dealership offered to hold the vehicle until a certain time when I could come back with my wife. I can back well before the time and the vehicle was sold. I have the promise on the company's letterhead, but it wasn't signed. Did the dealership have the right to sell the vehicle? Can I sue and potentially recover the car?

All depends on what the details of the agreement to "hold" the car was. Probably cant effectively sue to get the car (specific performance) but possibly loss of the value compared to another car or other"damages".
