Does the outside of your car still smell new?

Mine does. I can smell my car when I walk up to it before I even get in, and also in my garage. And it's been 1300 miles.

is there such a thing as outside new car smell? I have only 3K miles and I have leather, and always close windows. but now, I can't detect any new car smell at all inside. or maybe I am used to it.

You must live in Chino.

I think bringsmewomen means the smell of rubber from new tires. When I go in my garage, they still smell new at 10,500 miles.

I've never heard of outside new car smell. But your explanation makes sense

A few exposure to the acid rainstorm will disolve that "new" smell quickly...
