Porsche AG CEO and CFO quit

http://www.nytimes.com/2009/07/24/business/global/24porsche.html?_r=1&dbk

Wiedeking walks away with a $71 million dollar severance package.

And we thought the US automakers were screwed up

This is pretty big stuff. It appears the game was revered and now Porsche will be owned by VW.

I doubt this will do much to change or modify the Panamerica, but I think we might start to see some changes in the 6th model line?

Also if VW owns Porsche, does it need to keep Lambrogini, and Bently?

It's really a sad and disgusting state of affairs but thank goodness he's gone.

Unfortunately so is Porsche's independence.

It will be amusing to see Panorama's spin on this.

Must be nice to be able to make a company soar to new heights and then make it crash to the ground and walk away with $71 million.
