I have a 2003 Aero with 90K miles in salt-encrusted Massachusetts. No rust at all from the road. Just one spot started surface bubbling -- just ahead of the left rear wheel, down low where the plastic aero body extension meets the metal. Apparently this rubs, breaks the paint and can lead to surface rust. Cost me $100 to get it fixed (it was only about 1 square inch, but I'm fanatical about maintenance). Other than that I don't think I've ever seen a rusty 9-5.
