So don't smoke in the car! My biggest peeve is people who smoke in their cars.
I know it's your property and you can do what ever you want but still I can't stand it. And then those people throw their butt out while the vehicle is moving and it gets thrown at my car and if I have the air flowing that smell does eventually get in to my vehicle.

^That's THC for you at the most simplistic level and a major reason it's used medicinally.
I smoke in the car. I smoke cloves though. You can get in my car 10 minutes after I smoked and you would never know. For some reason the smell just doesn't linger, nor is it as bad to begin with.
I am strict though. AC/heat off, all windows closed expect the drivers side cracked. If you start opening up all windows, or the sunroof, the smoke will go throughout the car. This way, it gets sucked straight out of the window. Also, there is no turbulence inside the vehicle, so you have really accurate ash control. Lol

Yeah yeah I know I'm killing myself, and it's a disgusting habit, but damn....you can't even crack the window to smoke in the rain without getting the door trim drenched, and my back seat is covered in ash from ashing out the window....Not to mention there is no lighter or ashtray...WTF....back growing up, my dad's car had 4 lighters AND ashtrays...for every passenger. I know smoking is taboo and anyone who does it needs to be stoned to death, but WTF?
I paid good money for this car, just like everyone else.

They aren't kidding with their ash-trays, I have 3 (1 large on in the front, one in each door in the rear) and 3 cig. lighters in my 760!

I rock the Djarums. The reason it probably killed you is they technically aren't cigs anymore in the states, they are cigars. The wrapper takes some getting used to. You can thank Obama for that lame law.
And synthetic pot? Fuck that. It's premium real deal in my house or gtfo. Lol

In any car if you open the window even a crack the door will get drenched, wether it's my TL or 760, same thing happens. Invest in a window visor, they will help quite a bit so you can still smoke while it's raining. If you don't mind me asking, why not get the accessory ash-tray and drive with the windows closed and just turn on the fresh air feature (rather than reciruclate) to get rid of the smoke?

And yes, not surprising that a top dog German limo has 20 ashtrays and lighters. Lol I love it. I love the flute ashtrays that are in Rolls Royces.

The owner before me smoked in my car... Had it for 3 years now and haven't been able to get the smell out. Gonna start tearing out the interior and replacing it when I have time. I keep finding ash in every little crevous as well. It's a pain in the ass to clean

that's what interior shops do for mold/flood damage cars that are salvageable

I smoke all the time in my car; took a trip to Colorado in it with my parents a few months ago. Before the trip I just had a $40 detail from the carwash done to it and they couldn't smell a thing, even when they tried. They have good noses too lol.

with simple cleaning, about once or twice a week, and spraying febreze on the carpets the majority of the odor is gone.
oh, and window visor FTW! hated tryin to smoke when it was raining, until I got the visors. makes life so much better, even if we are killing ourselves slowly by the day.
oh well, f-ck it you only live once.

All you need to do is stopping smoking.....nasty ass habit and it does absolutely nothing but hurt yourself and your resale value. You're disrespecting your car :-) .
