Legal Question in Business Law in California

Right of Recission

I went to a car dealer and couldn't make up my mind so i left,then a couple days later the dealer called me,soliciting,asking if would i be interested a $10,000 1998 corolla used car,I said yes,the dealer then drove to my house picked me up and drove me to the dealership.When we got there the $10,000 corolla wasn't available and somehow I let them talk me into a $12,300 1997 corolla with 30,000 miles on it.Later that day I realized that I had been given the old bait and switch.I grabed a copy of the ads from the newspaper and noticed that the very same dealer had a 2000 corolla for $12,899,Just $599 more than the used 1997 they sold me,which had 30,000 miles on it.So I went back appr. 5 hours later to trade it up for the new car and they wouldn't do it,even though they had the other car in stock,which at first they denied having until I gave them the name of a salesman who assured me that it was in stock by phone before i returned to the dealer.Then all of a sudden they had the car that two salesman told me they didn't have.After proving they had the car in stock they then rufused to let me return the other car.

Does this fall under the laws governing door to door sales "right of recission".Please help asap,thanx

Re: Right of Recission

No, this is not covered by that law. Car sales are final.
