Why would you worry about road salt if you're buying a new car? -alex |

I got my car out of state. It had 12 miles when it arrived here so I don't think there could be any rusting consequences. I also bought it from Arizona where I don't think they salt the roads often.

^^^ it's not a "I don't think" issue. More of a, there is no rust problem issue.
If you're so paranoid about rust, just wash the car after you get it back. The only people with rust problems on cars are the ones that don't take care of them, and let salt sit and collect on paint. -alex |

When my BRZ came to California, a year ago from Massachusetts, it had 9 miles. The only thing I worried about was my paint getting damaged. You shouldn't worry about rust if you buy new.
