Do you have leather interior? I swear everytime my car sits in the sun, come back in and it smells new. Well it did that up until the end of 2011, not sure if it will be the same this year but ill let you know. Had my car since June 09 and shes a DD that sees food and coffee in her lol

Mine smells more like leather now, at 17k miles. Leather trumps new car smell any day.

I have had mine for 8 months, but the last 3 months it has been in the garage for the winter. Still smells like that brand new car and leather. Love it!
