It's mom's car, a 2005 Crossfire convertible. She asked me tonight (after spending about an hour replacing the damn headlight... snaking my hand around everything else under the hood) to open her trunk and see if I could smell whatever she had been smelling.
Apparently it's smelled like this for a few months but she hasn't thought much of it. Now it's a bit stronger. It smells like a box of Crayolas. Not too strong but it's there. She doesn't keep anything but some coupons and a hat in the trunk.
Any ideas? I know Jettas had/have a problem where the whole interior smells similar and I've heard of "the smell" happening to some BMWs as well. A German thing, maybe?
