Paul Walker's Daughter Has Settled With Porsche Over Her Father's Death
The daughter of the car world’s beloved Paul Walker has settled her lawsuit with Porsche out of court.
Meadow Walker had been suing Porsche over her father’s untimely death in 2013, citing known instability issues in the Carrera GT in which he was a passenger, and claiming that he was only killed because the seatbelt jammed and trapped him inside the burning car.
A US judge found last year that the latter claim was unfounded and that Porsche wasn’t at fault, but the former ‘wrongful death’ argument was ongoing. We don’t know what sort of terms or sums of money are involved, but both Porsche and Meadow Walker have requested that the suit be dropped after an agreement was reached on October 16, according to The Blast.
Last year Meadow Walker won a $10.1 million settlement with the estate of Roger Rhodas, the driver who lost control of the Carrera GT in which Walker senior was riding.

Porsche should better call Saul.
-1000 respect for Porsche for paying out for this. America is a horrible place, genuinely don’t understand their disgusting culture when it comes to money.
Money=power no matter where you are in the world. To get power and money you have to lie, cheat, steal, and trample over people. It’s the same no matter where you are or who you are the only difference is the way each country does it. America has a mentality of you are on your own you don’t get help from everybody. If you want better education than you have to work for it or if you want health care than you would work for it. There is a reason America is #1 in economy and power.
If you are doing 100 in the city in a Carrera GT on old tires, it is 100% your fault if you die. Both of them knew what kind of a car the Carrera GT is and both of them knew a thing or two about driving, no fault on Porsches side what so ever.
Blaming Porsche for Paul Walker’s death is like blaning Boeing for 9/11.
Same level of consequence.
true but still u have got to have sympathy
It’s funny because Porsche is the best in business in reliability and all Porsches are built to last.
Somehow I got a fear of Carrera GTs after this incident
Americans have an obssesion with blaming anything but the person at fault
