Yeah, I'd sent him an email about a friend that had a new 3-series and was without his car for months...but unlike neutral, didn't have a second car and insurance was trying to make him pay for the extra time on the rental car.

Don't let it affect you too bad though. Everyone makes silly mistakes and we learn and grow from them. When this is all over you will have a newfound appreciation for your car

...I'll just look the other way

To be honest, I was hoping to get it for engine development and Turn In Concepts (30 minutes away from him) would be using it for their usual suspension work.
As stated a while ago, I was going to be looking for an early wreck platform to dive into internal parts development and fuel system work (with Deatchwerks)...so when this happened I received about two dozen emails, texts and PM's lol
