Cali, Arizona, Texas, New Mexico, etc are all places people go for primarily older cars, where corrosion is a problem. These days cars aren't made of steel (as much) and the paint and coating technology prevents rust a lot better.

While it can't HELP the car to drive it in the salt, and the salt will pit aluminum and such, it's not like he's fording a river in the damn thing.
