what does your Z interior smell like?

onzedge · 05-13-2011, 10:16 AM

The interior of the 370 lost most of its new car smell, but still has a distinct and pleasant odor. Nothing, however, compares to the smell of 40+ year old Japanese vinyl, carpet and funk that resides in my 240z.

Once you smell it, you will always know it. I have been around it so much that every time I get in my 240, especially on a warm day, it brings back memories of long ago simpler times.

Mine still smells new as I don't smoke or eat in it but if I could find one of those crown shaped air fresheners that were popular in the Cadillacs with the offset wheels and spinners in the late 1990's I'd get one and mount it so it was visible through my hatch window.

Smells like the perfume of the last hooker I picked up.
