I have researched this a bit and it sounds like it could be a number of things. From my research it sounds like it could be anything from fuel quality (I currently use Chevron 92 octane gas, so I think it is a good quality gas, but am open to suggestions on different fuels) to fuel/air filter to an o2 sensor or fuel injectors. I also came across the possibility of it being a bad catalytic converter though. Any thoughts from you all?
Thanks guys!

So it doesn't go away?
As I was reading, I was thinking that it could be the foul smell that sometimes comes from our air vents.

It starts about 1 minute after starting the car when it's been sitting for awhile. It also lasts about a minute, then is gone. It is eerily similar to a fartOriginally Posted by Marcus-SanDiego

I've heard Cats produces the smell...
Your car doesn't happen to be silver grey?

Yeah, car is silver grey. Bought it from a guy in Salem about a week ago. Have you seen it around?

High sulphur content in the gas is common. Switch to another brand for a couple tankfuls and monitor with your nose.

That's the one nice thing about the ZHP. You don't see many around. I'm not shocked if Six has seen your car.

OK. Excellent. That's an easy test. Thank you very much!

The only time I have ever had those symptoms it was my cat.

I was strongly considering his car over the summer but he decided to keep it before I could even test drive it. Where In Portland are you? I'd still love to test drive it and see how the AA SuperCharger works... I'm contemplating one for the future...
