I parked mine this morning after a 25 minute drive in to work (still wish I had heat!) and got out to the morning fresh smell of gas and oil. "Ah, that's the stuff." And that's parking it outside!

My car leaks a little bit of oil, so it doesn't surprise me. I think most old cars smell this way?

A friend of mine had a 2nd gen firebird (transam) and it had the side ports in the engine bay - well, he couldn't roll his windows down in the summertime b/c the fumes coming out of there would choke him. hahaha :p
