If you find a low mileage 993 ( e.g. 1996 with 35,000 miles), I am sure the car was not driven on salty roads or in much rain........no matter what part of the country it has been used.
Mercedes have used galvanized steel in most lines since 2000 or 2001.

Also, my 220 S-class has so much plastic underbody panelling that rust isn't something I worry about. That said, the car is originally from texas.

Default 1995 Carrera Coupe

Heard from the seller. It's a salvage title.

Well if all East coast cars look like Al's (CornerCarver) then I would say we have it just as good over here. Although yes a car driven all winter and not maintained properly will have issues. But CA has its share of poorly maintained cars too and salt air from coastal areas doesn't help either.

Thanks Anthony! Your track car isn't too shabby either.
