Does Your Camaro Still Have That New Smell In It

Yes or No?

My car doesn't have it, but has anyone heard of air fresheners that have that smell? It's caused by the glues and stuff that are used to make the car I thought?

my cars typically keep the "new smell" well into the 4th or 5th year.

the smell is caused by the chemicals that are used to make the plastics, carpet, and other fibers of the car.

Never heard of an air freshner that smells like a new car man.
