Wiedeking should have made more friends with his fancy cars on the way up, namely Carlos Slim. A billion dollars to cut out Piech when the audacious plan went sour?
Pffftt... Slim could have written that check and paid off of the rest of the loan too without Porsche needing to run to Qatar. Slim must be a Bimmer guy.
