:
: All the german companies were supposed to enter the so-called " Gentlemen Agreement" to speed limit their fastest cars at 155mph or 250Km/h.
: Porsche was supposed to follow these rules.
: But its case was different: Porsche is a race cars, sport cars manufacturer, its goals and principles are to build fast, safe, everyday driveable "race" cars........
: their customers were expecting that from them......
: At the court, Porsche lawyers said that, and added that if they make Porsche enter the gentlement agreement, the company will die......
: short summary......though
: sometimes people should think about speed limiting Ferrari, look at this poor F50.......
: the crash made his owner lose most of his hair..his insurance helped him too!
