OUCH! Insurance is gonna be pissed when they need to pay out for the guard rail.
And I don’t even see a turn in either pictures... What was he even doing?

Most guard rails walk pretty slowly. It’s natural to get impatient when they don’t move.

I’m not sure. He was very upset. He loves that car.

I’d be heartbroken. I’ve hopped more than a few curbs screwing around in parking lots, so I know the shitty feeling of hurting your car just because you were messing around. And that’s just my cheap Miata.
The would is still fresh, so give him a few weeks before you ask him what in the hell he was doing out there...

I see a curve in the distance... tank slapper on exit that was overcorrected and snapped left into the guard rail head-on?

I see an aftermarket intercooler insurance isn’t gonna pay for (presumably). I’m grateful for his taking the blow for a future Mustang...

In both those photos, he would have been approaching the camera.
Looks like there is a left hander in the back of photo #2. I’m guessing he overcorrected, and found himself heading towards the opposite gardrail with a little oversteer. Looks like he hit it just about head on.
That’s my guess.

Could have gone that way. I’ve been in this car several times and it is fast. It pains me to see it crashed up. I didn’t need details.

Deer are hard to argue over as well. Those fucking things are everywhere.
I actually did nail one a few years ago, cop was questioning me for a while about what I hit before he realized I wasn’t joking. He said he’d never seen one in that area before.
That said, it always hurts anyone’s pride for a while when they can’t blame anything but themselves.
The car is a bunch of parts, it can, and likely will get fixed. His rates will go up, then they’ll go back down. Just life.
