The damn thing is 3 years old and should not be rusting out. It's rusting on the wheels, wheel wells on the frame and doors.

They should not have rusted after two years... They have small rust specs on the rims that will undoubtably turn into flakes soon enough.

Update from Jan 15, 2012: at 52k they are starting to flake. The wheels look like absolute sh*t and for $750 option three years ago it's bullshit that they look like this.
