Oh that smell
Maybe i am the only one who thought of this. When i got my chance to finally sit in a 2010 Camaro(2LT) the first thing that struck me was the smell. it was like no other leather i have ever smelled before. I wish i could have bottled it up and brought it home with me until my 2SS comes in . I have had very little time in foreign cars like BMW or benz with leather. And when i do they are not brand new. But my 06 GMC did not have that smell, neither did my wifes Acadia. Or any other GM, Ford, or dodge i have ever sat in. I think it is what heaven will smell like when i get there. Anyone else notice this or am i going crazy waiting for my car?????

I thought the smell was unique also, actually really liked it. I won't open the windows or the sunroof to try and keep the smell.

So can I get pics of the build process then?? I hadn't noticed the smell in the Camaros I have been in... however I don't have the best nose and I probably wasn't paying close attention to it. Once mine gets in I will test and verify

Then it would smell like body butter and cheap perfume.
