Now that your car no longer have the new car smell,

NIZMOZ · 06-25-2009, 02:52 PM

After 2 years my car still has the new car smell.

Just keep windows shut most of the time, and keep it clean.

The squash Air Aid is so good, it's ridiculous. Unfortunately, I do lose my cup holder, and it absolutely dies under heat and sunlight (it turns into this watery mush that just vaporizes...only air freshener I've had that does this). I got sick and tired of the Air Spencer version, though. Though the tiny air spencer...GIGA, I think? Those are pretty good too. Friend's civic had that, and it was strong as all heck.

edeeZee, where's your ex now, i want to meet her

I use the minty freshness of newports.

So I drive my car about 500 miles a month and always keep it in the garage with the windows up. By my calculations I'll need one of these in about 193 days (rough estimate). Researching now.l

I am looking for something different. Something that's NOT available in AutoZone or pepboys and costs $1.99

. Something not too strong yet noticeable. Something very sweet. I hate going into peoples car and hold by breath because their air freshener is way too strong.

I was looking into

CS-X3 air fresners

or

Carall Glare fine
Reference store: https://www.getsquash.com/store/?m=

thanks for your input(s)

Unique, not too strong. Not too sweet:

Phimosis · 06-25-2009, 10:33 PM

Not very convenient because it is in a spray rather than long lasting air freshener, but also not something you find at PepBoys:

If you really want to pimp your car out, you might try this:

I essentially told her that people who like anime escape into some stupid little world, they're usually dorky, stay virgins for the rest of their lives (though we didn't follow this), and the likes. I couldn't stand her offhand impersonations of anime characters.

But have you ever used a Japanese air freshener? They're not the same generic-smelling ones like at Pepboys, Kragens, etc.

I love anime, my collection is huge. I love the japanese culture. I read manga. I LOOOOVE asian woman too.

If doing these things makes you a loser than i must be a big loser.

On a off note, doing impersonations of anime characteres is "annoying" she could have did that with any thing, what ever subject she liked im sure she has a impression for. The point is, it wasnt the anime that made it annoying.

CS-X3 air fresners - the last time i used this was on a 2000 Eclipse. Old school. I decided not to put it in my 350Z and I wouldn't put it in my 370Z either only for the fact the crowd i used to hang out with were a bunch of ricers. Plus I remember that's ALL you would smell. It smelled good but after a while it made you smell like that. My clothes, my books, everything. I like the scents that Mequires cleaning product leaves in the car. It's subtle yet a fresh.

I will be trying Griot's New Car Scent. I have the leather scent from Griot's, but it's a love/hate smell depending on whose nose it is. I've not tried their new car scent yet.

Mea culpa, "man". Sorry for being so insensitive.

cs-x3 is so old school. ive used it in all my cars. the squash is the best smell and everytime i have passengers, they always comment how they love the smell. i would recommend it, but only if ur willing to switch out the cartridge every month.

When I was in high school I had a Celica GT-S and was a ridiculous Yo. I had about 40 magic tree air-fresheners hanging from every place you could imagine. It was all because of the line from the LL Cool J song, "Boomin System" that said, "crazy air-fresheners who needs cologne".
