Everything about modern cars, except for touchscreens, is superior to past cars including corrosion resistance. A five year old car from the 80's in an area that used salt and sand would have rust holes. A car from 2012 doesn't have anywhere near as much rust now. My first car was a 13 year old Toyota Tercel. It had literal 8"+ rust holes in every door, the frame had rust holes, and the fenders were falling apart from rust. My second car was a 10 year old Cutlass Supreme. It had a 6" rust hole one door, a rust hole in one fender, and plenty of other rust underneath. This does not happen anymore, except maybe trucks used for salt.
