It's because they have a squad of mechanics that make sure they are maintained, but yes the condition would vary depending on the storage mechanisms. Even just starting up a car that has been sitting with fuel in it's tank (which spoils) for a few years will cause havoc if not treated or maintained properly before the car is started up.
