SHADY to say the least.... Much regret!

I went in to look at a used, and I stress the word usedddddd Chevrolet cobalt...2007... with over 60,000 miles. the advertised price was 11,990 on the window sticker. This car is nice, don't get me wrong... but it definitely has many flaws (including chipped paint in severalllll places, dings, scratches on the inside and out, etc.). The entire reason I was looking for another vehicle was because I was driving a brand new 2010 Jeep Patriot and I was looking for something a little better on gas and a little cheaper monthly payment. I found the vehicle I wanted while I was looking online. I drove 45 minutes out to the dealership and met with Nick. He showed me the car, let me test drive the car, and then at the end of the test drive he asked "so is this the car you'd like to drive home today?"; that question caught me a little off-guard, but then since I liked the car, and I was downgrading to a smaller, more fuel-efficient car, I was very interested. We went inside the dealership to talk more about numbers and to figure out the details. We sat down and Nick told me that the dealership had agreed to pay-off the remaining balance on my jeep. (But what they didn't tell me is that I would definitely be paying for that in the long run.) So being naive to the situation, I thought it was a good deal. I then began to fill out paperwork and sign for the Cobalt. After a very rushed process, we had signed all the paperwork and we were ready to leave. Before leaving, Nick informed us that because it was so late at the dealership, the people who needed to look over the paperwork were all gone for the day, but the papers we signed would be sent out in the next following days. Well, we left the dealership without any paperwork at all (mistake number one). Got home, and realized that there was no manual for the car or second set of keys. I e-mailed Nick and got a unworthy response which basically said that I was not going to receive either of those items. Couple days later, I was driving down the road, and my tire went flat.... It turns out that there was a screw in the tire, and since it had been driven for whatever length of time with it being deflated, it rubbed the entire inside wall of the tire out (thats the dealership story, so who knows if it is really true or not). They fixed the tire. [[[Three weeks go by....no paperwork has been received]]] After no paperwork showed up, I was beginning to get extremely irritated and decided to email Nick, yet again and he told me that they "had been sent out twice". What a lie. After finally receiving the paperwork, i noticed that it included nooooo carbon-copies which I had signed at the dealership, just regular computer copies. (So then what exactly is the point of carbon-copy paper?) After reading over the papers, I noticed several things that did not match up to what I was told initially at the dealership. #1. the price of the car at the dealership (and advertised online) was $11,990.... on paper = $13,500 #2. the day I bought the car, I agreed to the stupid bi-weekly payments through a scam of a company (equity-4-U).... of $150 every two weeks.... well somehow when i received my bill in the mail, it was for $155.65.... where did the extra $11 a month come from??????? #3. The day I bought the car I was given NO explanation as to what my interest rate would be, Nick fed me some bull line about a "grade" and I didn't find out the actual interest rate until weeks after the purchase. #4. Does it make sense to anybody else as to why I would be paying the same exact payment on a used car with higher miles as I did for a brand new Jeep??? When I told Nick that I needed my payments below $300 a month, he came back once with a payment that was significantly higher. the second time, he came back with two numbers, $137 or $150 bi-weekly payments... (one with an extended warranty, and one without) I opted to choose the $150 every two weeks, even though I stressed that I needed a lower payment, and felt rushed into thinking this was my only option. he did not give me what i asked for. he did not careeeeeee what i asked for. and the list goes on. i strongly discourage anybody from ever dealing with this shady, shady, shady place. do nottttttt put yourself through the same thing I have. they are out to get your money and they are going to say and do anything they possibly can to do so.
