I'm sure they won't give you a damaged Z, but expect a delay for sure.

With an earthquake as powerful as the one they had, you can be sure all of the cars on that "lot" are damaged. Wether it be internally or externally, I'm sure all of those cards will be scrapped.

^Yup, there look to be a couple dozen totaled Zs there. An earthquake will not damage a car, it is the water damage to the body and interior that will kill these 370zs.
