Most people won't take the time or go to that much trouble. They just walk away. We have seen that happen on this forum more than once already. People get so pissed they just want to put the whole horrible experince behind them and move on. The dealers are counting on that reaction.

You have to actually sue them and win to make the signed contract mean anything. Until that happens, it's just a piece of paper.

which is specifically why I said it would hold in court. what you say is true about it being a piece of paper until you put it into play. money is much the same in this sense. That said, I stick with my previous (amended) statement
that if you have a contract signed by both yourself and an authorized individual from the dealership stating that the car will be sold at msrp (depending on how you go about it it may not need to be signed by you, but that always helps), you can press charges if they breach the contract.
