How long until "new-car-smell" goes?

Ive had my 182 for about 8 months now and its just over 3 years old and ive lost the new car smell it had when i got it :(

just wanted to know who has the oldest car with the new car smell!
 
Buy a "new car smell" xmas tree air freshener lol.

Mine went after i put my poppy coral air freshener in.

Think the new car smell gets abit sickly after a while.

I love new car smell! Mine went after about 6 months of having the 182, but it wasn't brand spankers when I got it.

Can you actually buy some product which gives it that smell ? I know you can get the magic tree new car smell but it only lasts a few weeks at best.

Whenever I have got a "new" - ie second hand car, from a dealer, it has always had the smell for a few months... they must use something when they valet it to give it that smell ?
 
The new car smell is just the general clean smell i think. If you clean with good products, dont smoke, have pets or eat in the car etc it will always have that new car smell.

I dont like it that much really. Like the air freshener smell better.

if you have full or part leather then use Gliptone leather conditioner - this rejuvenates the leather and gives it the new leather smell - well worth it :)
