SPF is licensed under GM to make their "similiar" but hardly exact, GS. I can't help but wonder what roll SPF might have played in prompting the GM suit...
What a lot of BS from GM. Senior management killed the project as soon as they got wind of it, and the five or so cars that were built had to be pirated out of GM and raced by others. If there was any justice, GM wouldn't have any claims to those trademarks having tried to strangle the Grand Sport in the cradle.
