daveh70 Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 I'll post a few pics and more details later. Has anyone noticed a mild burning smell from the rear, maybe from the exhaust? I'm going to look closely at the guide and see if that's normal during first 100 miles or so. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whammer Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 Nothing to worry about. All new cars are going to have that smell. It's brakes, clutch, exhaust, etc. all breaking in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveh70 Posted September 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 I thought it might be what they call undercoating "burning off" the exhaust system. Sounds like it'll go away as more miles are added. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveh70 Posted September 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Stripes are white and slimmer because of the performance pkg as you likely know. Thanks for the comments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdiddle Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 It's the Cats.....every new car smells like that when you get on it a bit. As you've said just normal exhaust.....it will slowly go way as you put a few miles on her. Great color combo....look exactly like mine.

TeeJay Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 Mine had the smell at one time. It disappeared along with my new car smell..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
