i spent a little whiel trying to research the isue of whether or not this would be a “new” car if the dealer took it back. The common wisdom is that a car becomes used the moment it is driven off the lot. I’m not sure that’s true. The amount of mileage isn’t detemrinative either, i don’t think. I think the title never was transferred from the dealer to the bank, so I think if I give it back they will bbe able to sell it as new and won’t incur as much damage as they would if it were a used car.

but not sure.

in any case that seems like a harsh way to deal with the dealership.

ethically, Im not sure that’s the right thing to do.
