Had a brand new car ages ago. Had to pull down the windows when I drove it home because of the "brand new" odor.

hehe ako nga 5 months ago ay gustong gusto ko yung amoy ng bagong auto ko eh yun pala ay may masamang epekto pala. maybe charcoal is a good idea para maabsorb nya lahat ng amoy.

Good info Z - thanks. I did suspect that it's not good. And it's like 100K car perfume for 1 year hehe (depreciation) . Notice also that shoe-store smell if the car has leather seats? this sometimes make me wanna puke or somthing. So what I do is open the A/C fresh air inlet, i close it tho if the outside air gets hot or polluted.
