Well hang on, I have a few papers I'd like you to sign. Don't bother
reading them, it'd only waste your time. Sign here.

Repeat after me: you were never deceived by Honda. You didn't deal
with Honda. You dealt with an independent salesman, selling a product.

And it's not the salesman's job to determine whether or not you can or
will use a product. His job is to sell it to you. YOUR job is not to
be ripped off. It's no one else's responsibility to look after your
needs and take care of you.

The world doesn't owe you a living. The world doesn't owe you anything.

If you didn't have a driver's license, the salesman would still sell you
the car. It's not his responsibility to make sure you have a license,
can afford the gas and insurance and upkeep, and are physically able to
drive a car. His job is to SELL YOU THE CAR. He's not Honda; he's an
independent businessman. IT'S NOT UP TO HIM TO JUDGE WHY YOU WANT
SOMETHING AND WHETHER YOU'RE WORTHY OF HAVING IT. It's up to you to
judge whether you should buy the product or not.

You didn't do that. You signed the papers without reading them. YOU
are at fault. What's more YOU are the ONLY one here at fault. No one
else.

The way you keep saying "I was deceived by Honda" tells me that you
truly can't distinguish between the manufacturer of the product and the
independent businessman who sells you the product. Given that, what you
should do is take your concerns to a lawyer and have him argue with the
dealership that you are incompetent and therefore legally unable to
enter into contracts.

That's the only way you'll get out of this. It sounds pretty solid,
too--because you are unable to distinguish a manufacturer from a
dealer/businessman, and you sign contracts without reading them.

How did you manage to buy a home, anyway? My guess is that there's a
whole story behind that one--which you, no doubt, are claiming some sort
of deception.
