Because he was in love with her, Noriel promised to sell his car to Marina for $500. At the time of that agreement, Marina stressed that the deal was purely commercial and made it clear that she did not share Noriel's hopes for an intimate relationship. Before the sale was performed, Noriel fell in love with another woman, Valerie. He therefore now refuses to transfer the car to Marina. The actual market value of the car is $7500. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A) Noriel and Marina exchanged consideration even though he has not transferred the car to her and she has not paid the money to him.
B) Marina cannot enforce Noriel's promise because love and affection are not good consideration.
C) Marina can enforce Noriel's promise to transfer the car, but only if she pays the actual market value of the car.
D) Marina cannot enforce Noriel's promise because her promise did not provide adequate consideration.
E) Marina cannot enforce Noriel's promise to transfer the car because that promise was only supported by past consideration-it was based on the fact that Noriel was previously in love with Marina.
