It depends on the value of the car and, agreed, it's certainly not the best strategy in most conditions. If they want $30K, "stick to their guns", the paint is not high quality, the car isn't finished, hire an attorney with a $5,000 retainer, then the downside is the car is history.

This is all "armchair lawyering", so I hope he's not taking my advice anyway.
