Also, I can only smell it when the windows are down. I tried to search using Google and the integrated search function, but did not come up with anything. If this has been discussed before, I apologize. Thanks in advance everyone! This site has been awesome in terms of obtaining information and checking out everyones sick rides.  |
You got it right, friend - just a quirk about our Z cars. The 7AT does the same to me as it does with SouthArk370Z. Its tough here in the North because some of the chemicals they use on the crops already smell like sulfur or straight carbon (gunpowder smell you spoke of). Mixed with that burning smell, people behind me in traffic back off. Makes for a great "tailgater repellant"
