Default In England they have another model of Ford GT

It was built by Roush, the same company that is so active in the U.S. in racing and making prototypes for Ford. They managed to glom onto at least ten Ford GTs from the batch that went to Europe and call them the Roush 600
and claim more power . They jack the price up to $300,000 or more.
I always wonder if Roush pitched to build the Ford GT instead of Saleen
and how Saleen it was that Saleen got the nod when Roush was so much better equipped across the board (they don't have hundreds of engineers, they have thousands!) . Maybe this is Jack's revenge on Saleen, to show that he would have been the better choice all along.

Only one company in England has rights to market it. I think their name is Avro. Goodle Roush GT on Yahoo UK and you'll find it. Be sure to check the UK only box or it gives you distracting US-based responses
