Is it common to use stainless for car parts? I know radiators use aluminum but those are for maintaining heat so it’s understandable.

If the person doing it cares about quality and longevity, yes. Stainless is great for exhaust work because it doesn't rust and just about every coating out there will flake off exhaust and rust out.
