That doesn't work. Say you purchase car for 0.5BTC today. Tommorrow BTC goes up. You ask for a refund and immediately buy the same car back for say 0.25BTC. Free discount. Who would not do it?
Core of this is that BTC (atleast right now) is a highly volatile, speculative asset. There is no way direct payments in BTC will make common "market sense" until volatility stabilizes. Until then someone has to take responsibility for bearing that volatility, either the customer or the manufacturer. In this case, it's apt that the customer bears it (as they should, it's their gamble).
