A Health Advantage for Buying Used Cars

Jack sent me this piece, which points out that the smell of a new car is possibly harmful to your health.
... that unmistakable new-car smell may soon be heading the way of the rumble seat: Recent research linking it to a toxic cocktail of harmful chemicals is spurring efforts by Japanese automakers to tone down the fumes.
Another good reason to buy used cars.

Jack adds that surely there should be some sharp lawyer out there assembling a class action suit on behalf of new-car sales reps.
