Hello, I bought a 2008 Toyota Camry 6 days ago from a used car dealership. The total amount for the car was $15,780 with $3,000 cash down payment. Today I see on the deale's internet site that the car is listed for 13,999. Can I renegotiate my contract with the dealer? Or is it too late, because I already purchased the car? Thank you in advance.
