Porsche won't settle the case.
Porsche must maintain the precedent that the driver, not the car, is responsible for its safe operation. Otherwise, they would open the company up to billions of dollars of lawsuits.
As for hurting the brand - more often the car becomes more famous and iconic. Where would the 550 Spyder be without James Dean?
