I think Porsche knew the legal liabilities they were walking into when they decided to sell a racing car as a road car without the requisite driver's aids. In fact, they took on these potential liabilities deliberately simply because they feared losing sales otherwise (as per the testimony of Porsche in the previous Carrera GT fatal accident case). Similarly, the owners knew the risks they were taking buying such a car. But when you're running a business you have to make decisions that increase sales without associating your brand with tragedy or fraud (cough VW).
