Timely topic. I have had a life long struggle with smoking. The last time I quite was around the first of July last year. I have again given into the urge and started smoking three days ago. I know it won't be long that I'll tackle quitting again but in the mean time I will never smoke in my car or in my house.

I only smoke when driving...

I spend probably 2.5hrs a day in my car, hard to resist!

But I've quit in the past.... had my last one in the car today! want to shake it before I take delivery of the BRZ...

We'll see what tomorrow brings..

Hah funny, I was thinking about making this same thread today out of curiosity.

No one smokes in my car. Ever. Glad to hear how many other people feel the same way especially coming people who smoke themselves.

I lasted about a month before I broke my own rule. I just hit the car with this every few days or so and I come back to the "like new" smell.

I smoke in my FR-S once in a while. Window all the way down though, and if passengers ask I tell them I don't smoke in the car. Meh. I need to quit soon.

If I smoked, I wouldn't be able to afford the cars I buy. ^_^

I smoked for 14 years and quit cold turkey. I have a black and mild cigar sometimes while drinking but never in the car.

I have never smoked tobacco, but I have had the pleasure of cleaning a truck that had been smoked in for 15 years.

For those smokers out there, check out & read up on the developments in e-cigs. HUGE improvements over gas-station/mall cart stuff. If you want help or have questions feel free to pm me. Otherwise hit up this forum:

an average smoker spends $2500 a year on cigarettes. i just think that kind of money can be spent on say... a new set of wheels+tires and a nice rear diffuser and enough oil filters to last a few years.
