Won ebay auction, $12.5 Import Cars of West Chester refusing to honor
(Mods if this needs to be moved please do so thank you)
Dealer: Import Cars of West Chester won't honor sale!!!
Last week 12/09/11 i put an offer in for a 2005 Audi S4 to a dealership in West Chester, PA. A couple hours later i was responded by them with a counter offer of the same exact offer i gave them, $12,500. I simply accepted their offer and won the car. I called up the dealership trying to put my down payment on the car and they refused to take it and said they will not be selling the car to me.
Iv'e called ebay about the situation and they told me even though they can't make the seller sell the car, there will be consequences.
As far as me being able to get this car for the price of $12,500, what grounds do i have? Iv'e read over all of the other problems like this on ebay but my situation is a little different.
Thanks!
Here's some more info about the car:

This happened to another guy in San Marcos. He won a GTR on Ebay, dealership wouldn't honor it, and it got so much publicity that they ended up having to. Use these links as your guide:

http://jalopnik.com/5829166/
I would show them that and see what they say.

when entering a bid/offer or accepting an offer, you're entering into a contract, they have to give you the vehicle for the price which you guys agreed upon.
best bet would be to email them some links to the GTR story and tell them that you're sure they wouldn't want to get their name ruined like that dealership did.
