Saleen S7 or Ford GT .....

Just curious ( regardless of cost ) what you guys would choose.
I think the GT is quite possibly the baddest ass overall vehicle made.

If I had to pick... The GT... ( I know the performace stats etc.... just wondered what you guys thought who most likely have the cake to make that sort of choice ).

Or could rephrase...
If someone offered an even trade, their s7 for your GT would you do it ???

Saleen easily in my opinion. The looks that kill and the performace to match!

However, the GT is no slouch in either category!

Saw a special on the S7 on Dream Car Garage and the ass end reallly sticks out on that car..

S7 looks like more of a 'kit car' to me..

Great car don't get me wrong..

But the GT IMO..... If I had to take one set of keys...... It'd be the GT....

Saleen S-7 def, no question. Steve Saleen has come a long way from just building car parts for mustangs.

best of both worlds the Mosler MT900S Mosler Automotive price nearer to the GT and performance of the Saleen. Though a TTGT by Heffner would be damn nice.

I personally like the look of the GT a little more, but I would not hesitate to do a straight trade for a Saleen S7TT. The rear styling on the S7 is not my taste, but overall it is an awesome car!

With all due respect to two great cars, you really want a Noble M400.

GT, because the debt I would be in would be signifcantly less than the debt I'd be in for the S7.

The FGT is a more practical car and is one of the best and very unusual car per dollar.

The S7 is the "Supermodel" type car with than 80 S7 in the world today. Its lines are stunning and it draws attention like a rock star. To drive one thru hard corners makes you feel like your heart will explode from the adrenaline rush. It will blow the FGT in all aspects.


The FGT is a more practical car and the best bang for the buck...... but as Saleen says about the S7 "Power in the hand of a few" and it is fun beyond your wildest dreams!

So you're saying that the S-7 blows the GT? And that is a good thing?
