Default Does your car still have original porsche smell?

Went to see Harold's 993 last week and the cabin still smells like it just came from the factory - great sensation!

Just re-upholstered my car but still does not have that smell. anyone know if there is air-freshener or leather cream that will give that factory new car smell

Try Liquid Cow. It isn't perfect but it has a nice "leathery" smell

Yes, the smeel in the interior is still like new.

Leather smell is fully there.
I do the seats an door panels with Würth Leater care, it's white coloured like milk, and it's just fine. Ecpecially the parts you touch a lot when you step in/out of the car.

We used it always in the Ferrari/Jaguar dealership I worked, when a car gor prepaired for the new delivery.
When you take a seat for the first time after using it, the seats feel very smooth.


Have fun,

Arjan

I get the Liquid Cow from a vendor that goes around to dealerships in our area. I would imagine you could get it at most stores (Pep Boys, AutoZone, etc...) I like it a lot better than Zymol. It doesn't give that shiny, mirror like look to your leather.
