No rust here... actually Alfas are (in my opinion) no worse or better than most cars. If you look after them they will last longer, both mechanically and in terms of oxidising metal. There are tips and traps - design 'features' that catch and keep water in boots and A pillars or behind flaps in the wheel wells, but generally there is nothing unusual here. My Toyota Corolla rusted in the hatch, as did my Hyundai Excel. Mind you, both of those cars were never garaged and copped whatever weather was out there...
