That sounded dirty

There is a liquid in a spray bottle from chemicalguys that you just spray under the seat once in a while and gives it a good scent. I use the leather scent spray in my 2001 f250 and people alway ask me how I still have new car smell in a 9 year old truck. I'm gonna use it in my camaro once I lose that beautiful smell.

Have had mine since November 2009, 1300+ miles and still has that new leather car smell.

10-29-09 , 3650 miles and still smells new. But when I first got it the smell was so strong it I felt like I was either getting a contact high or sick. Now it's mellowed out.

I find that hard to believe, but anything is possible. If anything is going to cause the headliner to sag, it's TIME and the GLUE giving way. Other than that, dont' worry, roll down your windows, open the sunroof..if you have one and enjoy.

Oh, and my car...don't have it yet, but my guess is it smells NEW!!!!

Funny this question came up, last night I was in my garage and I have not started my Camaro in a while because it is off the streets until sometime in April, so I grabbed a beer got inside my Camaro in my garage and yes it still has the same new car smell that it had the day I got it on August 6th, I started it up, the battery is awesome that GM put in these Camaro's, it started right up and I have not started it in a while, but yes that awesome new car smell is the best.
