Very no

By 10 years it's a miracle if you don't see paint flaking off. I've looked at probably a hundred cars in the past week, and I've probably seen significant rust on fewer than 5. It's the road salt that makes the difference. -- Drew

Any idea? (sure, it's f-ing Cold out there, but--your wheels may have cost You+Bank $ n000) (We who have spent a lifetime tending machines of all configuratios, from tiny on up, tend to look at these as: investments, not throw-aways). Once I thought that everyone did--but after Drumpf, I see: that there IS no 'common sense' on this stolen-land.

The salt keeps the packed snow friable and the car usable. That said, we may take opportunity of the occasional warm spell to run the thing through the car wash.

Good point re the slurry encasement ..while awaiting a warmish day. Do not take out your Veyron in winter. We California types have missed out on all this stuff. {Gloat} :-þ
