On a mountain drive with a few other 7's, an FB guy comes over and lookes in the FC beside mine and says 'Why do all FC's smell like rot?' He then walked over to mine and said 'Oh you must have an air freshener'. Never gonna forget that...

Both of my 7's have been the same as well ... Even if you have an air freshener in the car, still doesn't do it for me.

haha, i did that today.

i actually had a good day, and when i got home i went into the garage and sat in my FC long enough to drink a cold can cold mountain dew...it was a good way to top off the day.

There are two points that always seem to be made in these "FC smell" threads. One is that the interior plastics and adhesives in even a nicely maintained FC have a distinctive odor that some like and some hate. The other is that a lot of guys here have badly broken cars that smell like oil, mildew, gasoline, exhaust fumes, etc.

See, e.g., this very similar thread currently running in the 2nd Gen Tech section:
