What's that Smell?

[GK1]

Anybody else's G8 leather interior smell funny when you first get into the car? Kangaroo maybe?

[pakrfan19]

Nope, just a hint of new car smell, but that's fading.

I know and enjoy the typical new car smell (smells like victory), but this is bad. I know 3 others who just picked up new G8's and they all complained about it too.

Does it almost smell like an electric melting plastic smell?

[Scimitar]

It smells like plastic melting. Or maybe like those old fashioned space heaters with those red coils? Mine just started to smell like that nine days ago. Very strange...
