Anyone feel it? Any damage to report? 

I didn't feel a thing in Auckland.

No damage here (that I know of)(Marton) but being in an older wooden house it was a bit of a rock and roll event

Central Wellington, I was on the 11th floor and it felt like a reasonable shake.  Strong enough for the three of us in the room to comment to one another about it but didn't last long enough to consider dropping, covering and holding.
