Well, actually, the numbers come out to a little over 40% for the car owners (820x$5,100=$4,182,000 of $10,000,000). So I'm not really sure how the $5,100 per owner was arrived at.

But still, almost 60% going to the State for a lawsuit that was such a slam dunk seems like there should be VW owners suing for a larger cut of the settlement.
