That depends on the terms in the quote. Normally the answer would be yes.

If you accept it before they withdraw the offer then you would have a contract (i.e. if you replied that you wanted the car on those terms). If you asked for a better deal then they probably don't have to, although you should look into whether you may have a claim for violation of Pennsylvania's Consumer Protection law. That sounds like a deceptive business practice to me. Talk with a good lawyer about it.
