didn't they help develop the car?
Also they could be race prepping one. (crosses fingers)

Saleen is kinda not owned but has a relationship with Ford so I wouldn't doubt it.

Saleen is incharge of some of Ford's Racing teams just like Roush is but obviously they aren't owned by Ford and it's also kind of obvious that Saleen has a relationship with Ford.

Not trying to be harsh but you stated the obvious there.

the car's pretty sweet enough..i dunno if they'll make a better version. they're prob just putting it on display saying they contributed something to it

Saleen and Roush builds the cars for Ford. Saleen has a plant in Detroit that builds them.

Saleen doesnt have a plant in/near Detroit to my knowlege... Roush does have one in Dearborn, however. they dont make the GT either :P

Why would they need one seeing the Ford GT is better than the Saleen S7. I geuss the owner of the factory bought one or something.

i wouldnt be suprised if Steve Saleen bought one, but the S7 does things the GT doesnt. one is really the greatest supercar, the other is in the class of hypercars :)

I really hope they work on a GT, I just hope they dont litter it with scoops until it looks like the cousin of an S7.
