On occasions some have been so bad it has made me vomit. To add to that everything is sticky, gooey or greasy, with all those mystery stains on seats, carpets, steering wheels, interior door handles and fixtures, etc. A 6 day old gut pile in hot weather doesn't compare to that sickly sour smell.
My car and SUV would be a real treat for you then. Spotless, and smelling like Maquire's cleaning products (leather and vinyl). I would let you work on them for free, it would probably be a joy for you. Not that they need anything done on them.

Have you ever noticed the direct correlation between cleanliness and mechanical condition? I have.
