It depends on where you are. A few states in the U.S. have what is referred to as a "cooling off period" but most states do not. In most U.S. states, as soon as you sign the contract, it is binding.

Not in California. * In most instances the contract is binding when money has "changed hands". If this were not so, car dealers would have serious financial and inventory problems, as most vehicles that are bought have a waiting period for delivery. Therefore, a lawsuit will likely stand up in court if the dealer chooses to pursue damages for breach of contract on the part of the buyer.
