Here every now any then. Also, just paying attention to where the people that own them live.
Ain't any around here (unless imported from northwest/southeast/northeast) probably because Japanese cars seem to rust audibly, and how many people bought Japanese cars here in the 70's? (Sheez I get spit on by truckers now and then... it's still foreign-unfriendly in Cleveland, I imagine it must be worse in Detroit)

Yeah the damm heh I own a datsun 510 and I remember seeing it at a car show two year before i purchased it and it was super clean now it has sevral surface rust spots. My way to fight it is as much fiberglass panels as I can find which is almost all the removable panels except rear quarters and roof I guess I will just paint the hell out of that on both sides heh

I have one RX-2 left over that I'm selling, see my signature for the URL with photos.
It's a RX-2 coupe with serious potential for drag racing, autocrossing or road racing. Full race cage, GSL-SE RX-7 rear end (installed), new fuel cell (installed), recent paint, recent undercoating/paint on front end of car.
Car is currently almost completely stripped, no engine or interior. Front suspension needs to be installed/finished. All other parts like the wiring harness, pedals, brake booster, clutch master cylinder, etc. are all included with the car.
$1800

Yeah, keep thinking about taking a little road trip with cash in hand
But then I get sad when I realize the car would turn to metallic dust after only a year or two unless I keep the car garaged and only drive it 3 months out of the year
So pretty much I'll never own an older rotary.

LOL "White Trash" was a Texas car all its life and you saw how bad it was? It wasn't that bad when I got it. For some reason, cars that lasted a long time in a low-rust environment fall apart much quicker up here than one that's been up here all its life.
I remember around '96, someone brought a pristine rust-free '90 Prelude up to Cleveland... less than a year later you could eat corn on the cob through the fenders and rocker panels. Less than a year! It was really sad watching that car fall apart like that, even if it was just a Honda.
