>> he was a friend

Yes - it is better you found out NOW than later.

Verbal agreements are very dangerous (like your case).  If you already have a signed title, then don't worry.

Good luck...

Answer 2

A verbal agreement is worthless.  

Answer 3

Check with the local government outfit that handles title transfers.  Lay it out for them.  And you do realize he is now an ex-friend, right?

Answer 4

Uh, if he signed the title over to you, the car is yours.
