Porsche just announced they're not going to be making the GT anymore, because of new airbag regulations, and they'd have to crash-test the car again, and they decided its just not worth it financially. its in the latest autoweek.

He did - and left a wife and brand new baby behind. I believe his passenger died on impact as well. It was all over the Porsche forums as well as many others. It was very sad to read about how much he was loved and touched others, as well as what he left behind.
