I was wondering if anyone knows how to get new car smell. I was looking at the new car smell air fresheners and most of them just smelled like cologne.

 

it comes from the plastics and glue used in the car. so it's a natural sent.

 

A natural "artificial" scent? wink1.gif

 

Seems there's trouble replicating this artifical sent! Must be too natural.

 

It will never smell like that again. 02.gif

I am a big fan of the Auto Febreze though. fing02.gif

 

Just get a bunch of glue and pour some on something random every once in a while. lmao.gif

 

preferably not on the seat, steering wheel, shifter, or the pedals.. unless you like you car so much you cannot bear to be parted from her.

But yes, the "new car smell" is a combination of things. the outgasing of the paint, glue, new plastics, foam in the seats, and whatever it is they used to initially clean the car after it was finished and shipped to the states...

 

In other words, the refreshing aroma of carcinogens slowly killing you. fing02.gif

I keep a quarter pound of ground coffee under a seat, replacing it every few months. Smells awesome. If you like coffee.

 

if you like smells that last for a bit get an flavor skoal you want to have you car smell like and take the lid off and put it under the seat. It's well worth it.

 

Jump in one of the new Sonatas, Hyundai's got some bad new car smell. Stick with a little green tree I say. wink1.gif
