Default Ebay car - not the same car as listed

I am a car dealer from Canada and bought a car that was listed on Ebay by a big dealership in Omaha. This car was a 2007 VW Passat and listed as having leather and power seat. The car was delivered and when it arrived, guess what, it does not have leather or powerseat. Normally, I wouldn't make a big deal, but on these Passat's the first package that includes leather is a $4000 dollar package, and you can't get leather with out this package. That makes a huge difference on what this car is worth.

Do I have any legal ground for action? Will me being from Canada have any affect on the outcome? Does me being a Dealer or a business affect anything?

Thanks
Sebastian

Based on what you say here, you could file suit against them (or at least threaten to do so) in small claims court or in regular court; filing in small claims court is easier and requires no attorney...you could try to collect all of the costs and damages that you suffered
