sounds like its a smell from the turbo heating up. i work at a chemical plant so i will get used to the smell like i do at work. could not believe how limited the availibility of the RA's was. wanted apex silver w/recaro, but the closest one to new york was in texas. so i got the rotor glow w/recaro from wisconsin.

You won't regret getting the Rotor Glow! I love the color and I get compliments on my RA all the time.

We all remember that girl in school that we had a crush on and she always had this one little flaw that actually made her more memorable.

Well, unfortunately for the RA, it seems to be "the smell".
