Yes ma'am. I feel for the entire family. For a parent to lose their son so soon. 40 years old, or 4, its so devastating. I have been through it, the good die to young! And the fact he was leaving a benefit for his charity. Paul Walker had tons of fans,and nobody can say goodbye due to closed casket. Thats a bitter pill to swallow, I have been there, its a pill you never swallow, you just choke on it!

LOTs of people love very fast cars. Very few have the sense or skill to drive them. " Exotic" cars are designed to go very fast and have excellent handling. They are not designed to survive hi-speed crashes.

I have had several fast/exotic cars and actually one of my cars is a Porsche GTS. In general, when it comes to skills they are lot more forgiving than regular cars. Bare in mind that no car will ever save your butt from a 100mph frontal crash against a street light post, a concrete post, or another car...whether designed for speed or for safety. Princess Diana's death is probably a good example of a safe car beyond it's possibilities.

Porsche Carrera GTs are notoriously difficult to drive just ask Jay Leno.

Leno crashed his and on a track, so I doubt he would be a good reference.

Engage a curve at 100mph on a Toyota/Ford/Lincoln or alike, and you will experiment the real "difficult to drive". Most sport car will let you do that in a more forgiving way, including the Carrera.

One thing I will agree. The Carrera is different than most sport cars. So if you drive it for the very first time, then just watch out, it's very different than the others.

So he dated her when she was 16???? Or do you have a typo?

Well ima say my peace. Paul was a father, and a damn good HUMANATARIAN. (SP) I haven't heard a bad word uttered about him until I read some of these comments. Smh. When you make a charity and give millions to people in need out your own pocket and then enlist other celebs to help then speak bad on this man. May he sleep with the angels now. RIP.

The biggest question is how are they possibly going to write him out of the current film they were shooting?!

North Houston Porsche bought one of his Porsches 2 months before he died. They ran a rev test on it and could not believe the number of times the tach redlined. Porsche engineers estimate they were doing close to 150mph when they hit the pole.
