Hi Folks,

About 1 1/2 yrs ago I got rid of my 240d that I bought here locally in the Great White North. (East Coast of Canada)

Within the next 3-5 months I plan to purchase a 82 & up 300d (turbo). Since regionally we have a lot of snow & therefore use salt the local vehicles get pretty rust.
(My 240d had floor rust\holes & jacking pt rust big time)

I am thinking about looking for a US car from a "snow free" & hence rust free area. Where geographically In the USA should I be looking?

For example, I always thought Florida cars were rust free. But recently I was told that a lot of the vehicles located near the Altantic Ocean side of Florida were still prone to rust issues due to the salt in the air via the ocean.

So where do I look??

Thanks for your help, geographically challenged here in PEI
