Let me clarify: Fords are crap. Ford GT is amazing. I wouldn't call it a Ford (because Fords are crap) because it's italian designed (like the quality of an italian exotic). Therefore, Saleen was hired (thank you Elistan) to help build it to specs of an italian supercar because Ford couldn't manage it. Sorry for the confusion and brief stroke.

I don't see how Italy, or any Italians, had anything to do with the GT?

sorry, you make ridiculous claims, then cannot back them up. Typical ricer :/

Saleen isn't "Italian." You lose.

I never said Saleen was italian. I was only refering to the fact that Saleen built an italian-worthy designed car not an italian-designed car that Ford was uncapable of producing. I needed to clarify that. And no, I'm not a ricer.

Okay, so if I understand properly, when you said "That Ford is completely italian designed" you actually meant "The Ford GT is designed very well."

Yes, thank you Elistan. Again, sorry for using half this thread to clarify what I meant.
