Rust is simply oxidized iron. It can be 'un-oxidized' and made back into iron or steel.
Rust is the primary ingredient in laser printer toner. A bit of black dye and plastic round it out. The dye gives it the black color, and the plastic melts and fuses the rust particles to the paper.

To answer this question precisely would necessitate me knowing what you mean by the word "age". If car A is 10 years old with no rust, but car B is 10 years old with rust, they are both 10 years old. The age of both cars is 10 years. Only time itself causes age. However, if you ask the question "Can rust cause my car to become no longer useful?" The answer to this is - yes.
