My E46 was plagued with that, but I kinda liked the smell.
Yep. Every friggin German car from like 2000 onward smells like that after a while. The Crossfire reeks - but only in the trunk, because the roof comes off and lets it out of the cabin. I've been in a few Jettas that all smelled, some worse than others. Oddly enough the older BMWs I've been in (E36, E34) do not have the smell, they just smell like "old BMW" or whatever. Change in material?
