Extending that "new car smell"
Does anyone have a good product to keep and extend the new car smell in a Type S? I used Zaino Brothers products to wax and polish the car and it turned out fantastic. They also have a leather product for the seats. But do any experienced TL owners have a product that they like that keeps that "new car smell" going?

But in my case, it just took a few farts and that was it ............ no more new car smell.

When I traded my TSX in after one year, it still had that fresh plastic and leather smell. The dealer even commented on that when I traded it. So far my TL is holding up the same way.
I never ever eat or smoke in the car.
I keep it vacuumed out.
In the event dirt gets on the floor mats, I wipe/scrub it out.
I don't use any air fresheners
I use a damp towel (sometimes with a little soap) to wipe the dash, door panels, and plastics--no off the shelf greasy or fragrant products.
I use Lexol leather cleaner on the seats periodically.
Just keep it and your clothes clean, and don't load it up with overpowering air fresheners.
