Smoky burnouts...race gas...

And out of personal good taste, I eliminated certain comments...pertaining to my wife and my last f150...involving the stereo system, 2 12" subs, and a good dose of loud music that shakes the **** outta the seats.
HA!

new car smell comes in a bottle, old truck smell is something earned over time. I like the cans of cherry car scent. I pretty much always have one. the one from the truck got stolen along with my cool cupholder some tools and my green flannel jacket. I guess someone else my size likes them too.

I had a lincoln that I sold to my friend it had the cherry scented can it. his little grandson got in it the first time and asked "where did you get this CHERRY car?" I wonder if cherry scent will remind him of his grandfather.

Re: Favorite automotive "scents"

I'm right next to IRP, twice a day, 5 days a week.....the sad part is that I'm on the wrong side of the fence.

Having said that, here's a few of my picks(in no particular order)...

1)High-octane fuel, especially burnt.....*drools*..intoxicating
2)Freshly built engine "burning" in
3) tiresmoke(actual tiresmoke, not my own scent.....shut your ass, SpeedJunkee..LOL)
4)car soap and wax.....I can appreciate down'n'dirty, but I like mine clean
5)fresh oil....as it's being poured into the engine(or on, all depends on if the funnel's worth a damn)
6)those little tree air fresheners, New Car Scent..use them in my personal vehicles and my semi..
7)Nitromethane.....that tells me I'm at the U.S. Nationals, having a blast!
8) Old car/truck smell......with some, it's just the right thing.

A freshly painted car just rolled out of the booth..........

The old hot rod when it has sat in the garage overnite after having been raced the day before...........

The smell of coppertone, sitting by the pool on a hot summer day.....
