Sorry I posted here I didn't know where this would fall. Well below is what happened. I did call twice after I bought the car to ask if there was a way I could return it....just had more time to think....that is why they are claiming I have buyers grievence but now I have found out this major flaw in the car...It would be like buying a SS Camaro and finding out later someone just stuck SS badges on it. Please give some advice it you can guys.
this is what I submited to the Better business bureau. ON the vehicle purchase agreement is says in the sales man's writing that it is a SL and it's not. I"ve been told to contact the states att. for fraud...another person said to just file a breach of contract because the car isn't what I bought/wanted even if I wanted to get rid of it. Thanks to anyone who replys


On June 27,2000 I purchased a 1995 Mitsibishi 3000 GT SL from Stephens Automotive Sales. On July 22,2000 I went to Merle Hay Mitsubishi to inquire about trade in value on the car. xxxxxxxxx a sales person, ran the vin # and informed me that is was a base model 3000 GT which was worth substantially less in value than 3000 GT SL. After contacting Stephens Auto Sales they insisted it was a SL model. I then contacted the orginal owner who confermed it was not a 3000 GT SL. I went to Stephens Auto with a witness and was accused of buyers grievance and was told to leave the property. They misrepresented the car that I purchased and I now I don't want the car at all. I didn't want a base model 3000 GT and want a refund from Stephens Auto.

My response:

This is simple.

Contact the manufacturer and give them the VIN number, and have them send you back confirming information concerning the type of automobile it actually is. Then, when your worst fears are confirmed, see an attorney to start an action for Negligence, Rescission, Fraudulent Misrepresentation, Breach of Contract, Contractual Bad Faith, Actual Damages, Punitive Damages, and Attorney's fees.
