There may be circumstances which 'breach' the provisions of the contract and make it invalid (i.e.-financing is unavailable - the contract wasn't signed by by a 'lawful signatory' of the dealer - etc.) More specifics would have to be known for a more specific answer.

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.
