Favorite Exhaust Smell
I know we probably all like them all, but what is your favorite?

Personally, I have fond memories of following the DDT spraying, skeeter killing jeep from my mispent yute. You just didn't get the up close and personal effects when the old yellow bi-planes would spray from 100' ft up.

reminds me of the good old days in Fla when during the monsoon months you could hear the DC6's rolling over spraying for mosquitos...

There is nothing like an old 2 stroke outboard smell while water skiing behind it! Especially right after that "arm socket jerking" hole shot (a big plume of blue smoke)!
Ummmm Good.

These polls are tough. Hard to encompass enough and still get a broad opinion.

I know what you mean.... I'm drawing a blank. There's got to be more. I just can't think of it right now.

i used to like the smell of my 300sd exhaust, but I have spent too much time driving behind F350's that make me not be able to breathe!

I'd rather have no exhaust smell than any, however, if I had to choose, it'd be biodiesel. Depending on what it was, it may make you hungry!

That smell of unburnt fuel and catless exhaust is my favorite.
Muscle cars do a fine job of producing this.

My FAVORITE smell is hi-test leaded gas coming from the back end of a 1957 Chevy with no emission garbage on it.
Second is really good B100 - I love that fact that you can tell what it was made from -- linseed oil, soy, etc by the smell

Has anyone smelled the exhaust from those new MB diesels? Bizarre is all I can say. It smells like cooking cabbage. Certainly not my favorite, if I have one.
