smells like leather back then, smells like leather now. Must be the leather seats :)

Aftere 60k miles....
 
mine just smells.

smell
 
after 16k it still smells new - of course i use a toothbrush to clean out the car every week so there's not much there to hang around and smell up the joint.

Mine still smells like new leather w/o the air fresheners...

e still smells new. The 'new' smell is stronger if I don't drive it for a day or two and then smell it.

I have had my car 16 months, 9000 miles and it no longer smells new.
I have seen advertised "new car smell" air fresheners, and have tried them. All they do is make my Maxima smell like a bathroom. Have any of guys come across a good freshener, that gives off that new smell?

13000 miles and it still smells new.

I clean my car as it were a shrine.

About 4500 miles on it, and still smells like the day I picked it up!

I cant tell but my friends and passengers still think it smells new.

MaxirmaSE Jan 30, 2001 10:56 PM

mine smells like cigarettes. :D

TexMaximum Jan 30, 2001 10:59 PM

mine, but then again, it still is new :)

3300 miles or two months (maybe I should get out more?)-- of course it still smells new! I agree, I think my friends notice it more than I do...

if I don't drive it for a day the smell is more obvious, but to a new person it still smells new, man its a year and half and still now air freshners.

My car still smells new and has 9k, but then again the leather seats help. For those who have leather try Meguiar's cleaner it gives u the new car smell all over again.

I have 2 giga2 air spencers (herbal squash) and one giga1 air spencer on the top (squash) plus i febreeze once a week.
clean with leather cleaner.
everyone says i have the best smelling car :)
