My uncle owns a BMW Z4 (yeah i know its not that impressive), but he doesn't drive this car to business meetings as his clients would undoubtedly think they were paying him too much to afford a Bimmer. Instead he drives his Chevy Trailblazer which he likely paid more than the BMW for. Its all about perception.

10-4. Come to think of it, this reminds me of something one of my bestfreinds told me about his father when he was considering buying a new work vehicle for his business. I think at some point he was considering buying a Volvo XC90 T6 (at the time). He said his father decided against it because he didn't want potential clients to think he was some pompous businessman who pranced around in his premium luxury SUV from meeting to meeting, demo to demo. So instead he got a cheaper and far more useful F-150 Crew Cab. Fits the everyday working man image better too. However, I'll be burning rubber in my Camaro from work to home, and everywhere inbetween. Take a cut in pay? Whoever said I had to stay???
Thanks for educating me on the salt thing guys, it's appreciated. Never know what you may run into in the future, especially living outside of CA.
