That's funny. I still have a 2008 Mazda6 (been driving the heck out of it for 9 years now) and it's in mint shape. NO RUST. I live in IL. Yes, we get snow and have salt spread all over the road in the Winter too. I'm originally from southern Ontario. I know what Winter can do to a vehicle. I also know how important it is for a person to take care of their vehicle too.

I'll break it down for you... take care of your vehicle. It'll take care of you. 

FYI Editor - your Mazda6 interior picture is from a 2016 model... not 2014. The infotainment screen gives it away.
