I just read all of these posts, and no ones smell like mildew from the leaky Targa??? Mine always leaks, even with new seals all around.

smells like moisture mostly because my garage smells the same way from the a/c hanging in the roof.

my maroon car smelled the same way from my garage, cuz my garage is weird.

Usually Smells like supra.. a little bit like coolant, a little bit like oil, a little bit like fuel.

Right now it smells like clean... Completely tore down my interior today and cleaned the crap out of it... pulled the seats out and scrubbed the carpet, pulled off all the buttons and switches and cleaned them too... ahhh been wanting to do that for a long time!

Now it's time to get the tree sap off my roof :(

My 89 7M smells like a regular car when it's being driven like a regular car... but smells slightly like exhaust gases at WOT for prolonged periods of time. Crack a window for a minute or two, and voila, car smells like a regular car again!

If it's not raining, I drive with the windows down anyway, to get a good front row seat for the I6 Turbo Soundtrack. If it's sunny and warm, targa's out and windows are down. So it smells like warm sunny breeze and blue skies, with 90km of headroom.

I'll feel better when it smells like race fuel and NOS.

I can't smell anything because I'm too busy trying to cover up my bleeding ears from this new 3" exhaust. We should get a hp/decibel chart, I think mine will be one for one. My car actually smells ok now that it dried out from the summer weather. I pulled the ugly carpet and got it cleaned. That helped a lot.

Mine is tuned quite rich, boosting 15psi with no cat on the street stinks of exhaust and fuel like a race car. My clothes smell like that even after I get out! I am adding a hi-flow cat now.

Yea, I have noticed that too...whenever I drive the Supra, the exhaust smell lingers in my hair and clothes...kinda sucks.
