In dealings such as these, consult an attorney in your local area.
A contract, even one with errors, is legally binding upon the signing parties. Hopefully the error is in your favour. Note that if you didn't have an attorney look over the contract, it could be completely different from what the dealership said. (A verbal contract is generally only worth the paper it's printed on.)
I am not a lawyer. You should consult a local lawyer. It's always a good idea to have your own attorney look over any contract before you sign it.

Does mistake invalidate contracts?
For a mistake to affect the validity of a contract it must be an "operative mistake", i.e., a mistake which operates to make the contract void. The effect of a mistake is: At common law, when the mistake is operative the contract is usually void ab initio, i.e., from the beginning. Therefore, no property will pass under it and no obligations can arise under it. Even if the contract is valid at common law, in equity the contract may be voidable on the ground of mistake. Property will pass and obligations will arise unless or until the contract is avoided. However, the right to rescission may be lost. Unfortunately, there is no general doctrine of mistake - the rules are contained in a disparate group of cases. This is also an area of confusing terminology. No two authorities seem to agree on a common classification, and often the same terminology is used to cover different forms of mistake.
