I went on vacation for two weeks and had to leave my beloved Prius behind. I keep a sweatshirt in my car at all times. When I got back, I threw my sweatshirt on. It had been sitting in the car for two weeks, so needless to say, I smelled like new car. In fact a week later it still smells like new car!
Ick... I hate new-car smell (gives me a really bad headache, and just plain stinks). Fabrise the heck out of it and leave the windows open for a week, that's what I'd do. BTW, the ferret on your avatar is darling. My uncle used to have a ferret (only animal he isn't allergic to).
I love the new car smell. The really cool thing is, my Prius, from March 29, still has it. When I was in Vegas over last weekend, the Porter putting my bags in the back said "How long have you had it, it smells a week old, great new car smell"? I was like, "awsome"!!! "I have had it since March 29" He said that it was pretty cool to have that smell for so long.
Yikes, I'd die if my car still smelled new after that long. I am going to air mine out real good when I get it. And Fabrise it.
Auto detailers use a scent that smells like new leather. Obviously the prius would have no use for it. My fiance is a detailer so he knows all the tricks
Got no new car smell. Got Newf aroma. What is the point of driving with out the whole family. Big Dawgs rule, also drool, but that’s another story!
Awww, I like Newf Aroma. Smells fuzzy. Fuzzy is good. Too bad the WA PC Club meet isn't going to be at a park, because then you could bring your Newf(s)! Post a pic of your Newf(s) and your Prius in your album! Two things you've got to love, all in one photo. Now a leather-scented spray would be lovely. I'd take that over New-car smell any day.
Too late today for Newf/Prius pictures. I will try tomorrow. Just one Newf now. Had to put Scannon down a few months ago at age 12 with a osteosarcoma. Always tough and he was the kindest, most gentile loving dog I have ever known.

I did a search on the web and found this: http://www.car-waxes.com/carscent.htm I don't know if it really smells like new car. NiMHPrius

So VOC's are everywhere, new cars, new airplanes, and new houses.But some are harmful??? So much for my fantasy. :lol: In the beginning of my pilot training, we flew in a Cessna that was Brand New. We were the 3rd people to use it. But the next time, the smell was gone.
Oh dear me... so very sorry about your loss. I will be mourning the loss of my cat soon enough. She's got cancer, and though is not yet showing any signs of it, her days are numbered and we know it. I already lost our other cat to cancer a couple years ago, and it still makes me sad even today. On a happier note... Sasha is adorable!!! How old is she? I want to hug her. Newfies rule! 8)
Here are pictures of Sasha in Belle the perfect antidote to new car smell. Also threw in a picture of The Beast and Belle. Sasha defiantly prefers to ride in the Beast. More room.
Let it sit in the sun for a few hours. That will renew the sent. I know it is not good for me but I must have it.
