RIP Paul..... he seemed down earth, i never saw an interview where he acted "Hollywood". In a way he started my passion for the auto industry. fanboy or not, after the first movie I fell in love with the supra and the yellow R33. Condolences to all those involved and i hope he went quick, can't imagine what his friends had to endure waiting for the firefighters to put out the car....

Looks like the shop he owned is now sort of blaming the car...

Paul Walker -- Death Car May Have Malfunctioned | TMZ.com

I call BS on that. Power Steering fluid does not burn and even if a line burst, you can still steer the car. This my friends will get messy....I smell a law suit against Porsche on this....or some attempt of it. Notice how they say the car was not modified....I don't believe that either. The whole purpose of his shop WAS to mod cars.

Very sad to hear it was true. As a Filipino, I'm truly grateful for his support for the typhoon victims that devastated the country a few weeks ago. Knowing he was headed to that same charity event makes it even more tragic. Say what you will about the circumstances of his death, no one deserves to die so young. My utmost condolences and respect to the families of Roger Rodas, Paul Walker and the AE Performance family.

Ah humans, so a new video has surfaced where Tyrese comes to view the area where Paul Walker died, and it shows him getting teary eyed.

NOT ONE god damn person decided to give the guy a hug... Instead, every ásshole turned their camera to him... You don't even know Paul Walker, this guy has known him for 14 years!!!

Our Sincerest condolences and sympathies go out to the families of both Roger Rotas and Paul Walker. Both were fathers, sons and influential people in many individuals lives. Let's not forget that Paul was not alone, and Roger will not be forgotten either. He was not as famous, but you DAMN Sure he was important...maybe not to you or to I, but he was someone to somebody. Both will be truly missed, loved and forever always remembered. RIP to both you wonderful people, may your souls race with those in heaven, may your legacies carry on in your heart, mind and soul. And let us not forget one of my most influential sayings....

"....The past is behind us now, Live your lives for Now, loving those whom you keep close, and decide your future one moment at a time, Live for now and embrace it."

This was a shocker in my book. His interviews probd him to be a humble and likeable person. He was a true enthusiast and sportsman. My heart and prayers go out to his family.

Just read a article that cops are warning not to do burn outs at the crash site.

Actor Paul Walker was not drag-racing at time of crash, sources say; car was going 40-45 mph around bend with 15-mph speed limit - @NBCNews - One News Page [US]

I want to call BS at 45MPH. EVEN if they lost power steering.

Watch the TMZ video of the cash or a bit of it. A car was right behind then and stopped in front of the crash. They know what happened.
