I agree with Nathan. Furthermore, are you guys crazy? He wasn't "taking it for an overnight test drive", IT'S A BLACK 88 SPG! One of the hottest most beautiful cars EVER! He was beating the PISS out of it with everything he had! And I gaurentee that it wasn't warmed or cooled properly by ANY means. I'm sorry that that happened to you, but what you were thinking by dropping it off at a shop like that, I'll never know. Like someone else said, always take down your odometer reading when you leave it anywhere...I (if I'm away from home and have a choice) ALWAYS even go so far as to inspect the entire shop from top to bottom. Not only can you assure yourself that your car is in good hands this way, but you can really scare the hell out of the people who work there that might try something shady, seeing that you are a serious stickler and all. The message that I try to convey when I go to a place like that is this: I love my car, I know every nut and bolt on my car, have turned most of them, and if anything is different or changed that shouldn't be, I will know, and someone is going down in flames in a major way. The only person who ever takes my car to its limits is ME. By the way, as far as the "pot" issue goes, don't hate.
