Default New Car Smell

My new Z didn't have that "new car smell" I usually notice in my new cars. I'm thinking that it might have sat on the showroom floor with windows open, etc., for a while before I bought it. It was not a demo and the production date was the normal couple of months prior to my date of purchase. I guess I'm asking if most of the other new Z's came with that expensive smell. I'm told it is the smell of oxidizing plastics and other chemical reactions and I'm just as well off not inhaling it for the couple months it usually stays with the car. But I was just wondering.
