normal, it will be gone soon. If u look under the car, you will see stock labels wrapped around the exhaust pipes, just aft of the cats. They smell and smoke for awhile.

Something don't sound right here.

For your information sherlock.. The car was ordered, yes the dealership is 2 miles from my house, and I drove it home and parked it.. sound right yet?

It's probably the exhaust.. and everything else getting warm.

Don't worry about it.

I plan on pulling the fuses when I can fill it up with 93, but its going to take me forever to use the gas up... Im kinda one of those guys that is just as happy looking at the car clean in the garage than driving it... need to get used to the clutch though its alittle different than my coby, killed it twice today LOL

My m6 smelled like something was burning at first too but the smell went away after a couple hundred miles.
