Send the silver one to Wolfdogs, I'm sure he can work his magic with Zaino. (Yeah the car looks screwed).

Red one looks badly damaged in the other pics also. It will be interesting to see how these vehicles sell.

It's not like they're flying off the lots. Hell, the Dealer probably needs the insurance payout so much, he'll start sponsoring a local Happy Hour if sales keep dropping.
