Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In order to prove fraud, Donald would need to show that the salesman knew or should have known that his statement about the Porsche improving his love life was false. Without this element, Donald cannot win on the basis of fraud. Additionally, Donald cannot win on the basis of mutual mistake or unilateral mistake because the idea that a car could improve one's love life is purely subjective and cannot be objectively verified. Finally, the suggestion that someone named Donald should not drive a Porsche is irrelevant to the legal question at hand.
