Does a Canadian model in the U.S. add any value?

Yes, it's a dilemma, I suppose the cleanest used cars come from West Texas, New Mexico and Arizona, with Scottsdale and Palm Springs having the most MB's per capita. Unfortunately the best prices on used MB's is in the New Jersey corridor, because of the volume of Benz's sold and on the road. So an obvious trade-off.
I've worked all over the US and Canada, Including Seattle {Bellingham] and Vancouver {Prince George} Wonderful places, just not the best places to buy a used car.
Not to mention, trying to find a car wash in Seattle/Vancouver, it rains a bit there.

Oh yeah, I got my last MB in New York, had the best price, just had to drive over one state to pick it up. Wasn't worried about rust though, MB uses a lot of aluminum plus I don't plan to keep it that long for it to be an issue. Either MB is doing better with rust or just newer cars have less rust. Or maybe I get the car washed all the time and they do an underbody wash which slows down the rusting.
