New Car Smell = Glue they use to lay the carpet.

Every car has it, and heat brings it out.

Edit: BTW 11,000 miles and I still have the New Car Smell.

I go to the gym a few times a week and my towel from being in the car had the smell. I found myself on the treadmill breathing Mustang from time to time. Amazing how the smell almost puts you there.

What's up Chris, nice to see a local here.
Off topic I've only seen a few 05's in Nashville.. 2 6's and a WB & Red GT.
If you know any Stang Nuts we should all meet up sometime.

...another black GT and also a mineral gray GT at my office, along with a wb v6. And this one is running around nashvegas somewhere too. I have seen a silver GT several times in the 'boro, and last night I was next to a white 05 saleen on hwy 96. Driver looked 16.

Sounds like a Nashville meet might be a good idea...

Edit: I have seen the Yellow Hunter's 05... it looks alright but not my style.
