Stainless steel exhaust

I just looked under my Scion and noticed that the exhaust is totally stainless steel. Is this true?

It's stainless but a lower grade. I doubt it the good quality stainless like the aftermarket exhausts use. I thought stainless wasn't suppossed to rust?

Stainless is corrosion resistant, it will still corrode. Is the exhaust really stainless? I thought it was just standard galvanized steel.
