  | Customer sues Porsche for the "bad" handling on his Carrera GT! Porsche - Product liability for selling an unsafe car. This falls into three levels of defect: 1. There was some mechanical problem with this particular car that made it handle badly. 2. There are design defects with the Carrera GT that make it a poor handling car, mainly tail happy, 3. Third: The Carrera GT is to difficult a car to handle at high speeds for the average driver without instructions. More details... PS the article is from June 2006

| Re: Customer sues Porsche for the "bad" handling on his Carrera GT! Looks like a shotgun, sue everybody in sight apporach. I'm sure the venue and coordinators have participants sign reams of paper to cover themselves in such an event. To say that Porsche was at fault is on its face ridiculous. But that probably doesn't seem so to a bereaved widow.

| Re: Customer sues Porsche for the "bad" handling on his Carrera GT! I remember this. Like the woman who sued Porsche for the same thing because her husband died in it.
