1) Stupid rich person buys the fastest and most expensive car that they can afford and stuffs it. Scratch one nice car and notch up one incremental improvement in the gene pool.
2) Greedy survivor(s) and lawyers team up to ream anyone who ever looked at the car -- as if that will make up for the death of their loved one. It's not like money made them happy in the first place, and now they want to take more away from someone else. Sure sounds like good money chasing bad to me.
3) The rest of us will have our insurance go up, and our hobby become unaffordable as a result of all the litigation.
At the end of the day, no-one's happy. Not the dead people, not their survivors and not most of the reasonable people who used to enjoy Porsches. Ok -- maybe the Lawyers will go home happy, but that's about a perverse as a smiling undertaker.
Rant over!

You should do a search on the internet before making a statement such as "Stupid rich person" There are plenty of discussions of Ben Keaton from LaJolla. If you don't know what you are talking about SHUT the FUCH UP.
