I believe I read that there are some cars who have such a clean exhaust it actually might be cleaner than ambient air in some cities.

Obviously if that is true we are on the right track.
Yes you did; it was an ad for the SAAB that said the emissions coming out of the new SAABs tailpipe was actually cleaner than air.


But I tried over and over to picture myself inside an empty locked bedroom filled with Saab exhaust instead of air. And, I JUST COULD NOT DO THIS.
