Will not argue with you and will buy my next Cayenne, or anything utilitarian from a warm climate, but it does depend on how well you take care of your car. 2007 328i with 263K miles driven every winter in MA and NH since new. Was washed 2-3 times a month. No real rust, even on most undercar fasteners (just did a whole cooling system refresh). Cayenne from Canada the opposite, a throwaway ski truck owned by some wealthy folks I imagine.
