That's actually a pretty common occurrence, we used to have people complain
about it all the time when I worked at the chevy dealer. We moved about
1000 vehicles/month and the one guy who did all the PDIs sometimes didn't
get a chance to get to some of the new ones before people wanted to test
drive them. That's when they'd get the smell. No big deal really, it burns
off in 5 minutes or so and never smells again, but can be annoying and
disconcerting the first time you experience it.
