Nope, I've noticed it on a Camaro, Subaru Impreza, Subaru WRX, Honda Pilot, Mercury Milan...only to name a few recent ones. Common with all new cars, no matter the brand. Also keep in mind that even when buying a new exhaust you can smell the forming oil burning off during the first so many miles. I wouldn't be surprised if the stock exhaust (and other various components) also have some residues, in addition to the paint and stickers and such, left over from the factory that will burn off over time.
