Typically, used vehicles are purchased as is, unless a dealer warranty was provided. This truly is a case of "buyer beware". As it is a used vehicle, the liablity lies on the shoulders of the buyer, not the seller. The only case you could possibly have is if the seller knowing lied about something, and you would have to prove that they knew it was a lie.

However, if nothing was in writing about trading cars back if the loan didn't go through, then its your word against his and he has the upper hand. However, with all that said. There would be no way in hell I would take the car back from you. Look at it this way, say the dealer was driving you car and it broke down on him. What would you say to him if he asked for his RX-8 back? It’d be in your best interest to rig that car someway to be able to drive it back to the lot and get your car back.

But did you tell the C/U why you wanted it canceled? And did you call the dealership immediately after the smoke poured out from the engine bay and quit running? Did they let you drive the car over the weekend on a BCA (Borrowed Car Agreement)? Or did you take it after you signed a Option Contract? Hopefully, you did tell the C/U why you wanted to cancel, you called the dealership right after it happened. And you took the car on a BCA, not an Option Contract. Otherwise, you've got a real nightmare on your hands. There is no lemon law for used cars. But there is a common knowledge law that protects consumers on products purchased from businesses. It's not written, but can never-the-less help you. It's common knowledge law that it's expected that a product will perform reasonably after purchase. 20 minutes is not considered reasonable. You're not obligated to buy the RX8. And the dealership must give you your Saturn back. But it will all be a lot easier if you did those three things I mentioned. If you didn't do them, you may have to hire a lawyer if the dealership balks at it. Good luck. You are under NO obligation to buy the RX8 since you canceled the contract before it was funded.

Welcome to the real world, where adult decisions have consequences. But, IF the manager made you a deal in writing that you can return the car, who are we to argue. IN WRITING! IN WRITING! IN WRITING! Or it never happened. Technically, you did NOT buy a "lemon" UNLESS it was stamped as a lemon on the title and lemon law buyback had taken place while the car was still under factory warranty. Otherwise, you are just blowing smoke. Also, what made you an expert on cars anyway to where your test drive and only that should have made this decision for you? Really. I know my cars and trucks and would NEVER rely on my own starry eyes if I fell that in lust with a test drive! Besides, those rotary engines are notorious smokers and very finicky, but you knew that and didn't ask us about that first, did you? Nope.

The rule of law is "caveat emptor'. If you've never heard of that, it's Latin for "buyer beware". It means it is the buyer's responsibility to determine the condition of a vehicle before buying it and to validate any and all claims made by the seller before buying it. Look, you can't enter a contractual agreement with a dealer to buy a vehicle and then go behind the dealer's back to cancel the financing. That's not acting in good faith and it may be a fraudulent act. If the dealer finds out from the lender that you canceled the financing, he may play hard ball with you. Ultimately it all depends on what you signed. Text messages are not a valid means of conducting business like this. You do it in person or by registered mail.

If the dealer does agree to take the Mazda back you better hope he does not hold you responsible for the problems with the Mazda.

With or without a laywer. And you should be entitled to ask to have it repaired somewhere else since there are bad personal relations between you and the owner of the dealership. This is a customer relations matter that GMC should take very seriously, or you have the option of going public with your problem. TV stations love stories like this --but GMC doesn't. Does that sound like you might use the media to lean on them a little? Well, given the fact that they are very large, very powerful and very well bankrolled, you need to do something to even the scales. Since the repair route isn't working, ask for a new replacement vehicle. Go after them, and don't give up!
