wow that looks severe! I hope your friend heals quick.
Sucks about the car - rare or not, he's flesh & blood. The car is recycled aluminum & alloy = replaceable.

Terrible! Sorry to hear man. Glad your buddy is ok. You can always replace a car but not a person.

Well, I hope another party have enough liability to cover your friend's car and medical expense. And also hope the insurance company would cover all the aftermarket parts on it.

Gold your friend is OK.
