So, I still have pipe laying around from changing my exhaust out. I cleaned some of the old pipe with a wire wheel, hmm, this sure doesnt look like stainless... grab a magnet, not staiinless in the least bit. Had my car up, checked headers, nope, checked immediately after flex pipe, nope. The only thing I couldnt check was the muffler. So to all those who say the exhaust on the 09+ is stainless, hate to say, but its not. And the article that says it is is for GM canada. Im not sure if they changed the exhaust for canadian cars or something, but my 2010 sure as **** isnt stainless
