It will take a miracle to get that cigarette smell out.

I quit smoking and I still have the smell 8 months later in my truck. Ugh.

Lol... I went to get my 1 year maintenance, but i changed my oil 300 miles before that. everything else was already done. I just found it funny that they asked if i wanted to change my in cabin air filer, they said, "oops... looks like the Z is the only car here that dosn't have one..."
but thats realy only funny for me....

Also to add. Pay close attention when you get your major mileage service appointment. Our friends at Nissan may try to charge you for it.

I smoke in my car, I dont have the cigarette smell either. I even asked some non-smoking friends who has sat in my car and they all said that there isn't any cigarette smell inside.

I have leather seats though, I notice smoke smell only sticks to fabric.

I smoke, but not one in the 350, cigarette smoke kills the interior, especially the lighter colors, and shame on the poeple that do.

A good way to get any smell out (smoke, musty) is to use an ozonator. You may need to rent or borrow one, casue the good one are $$$. Basically put in in your car, close the windows, and let that sucker run. After a while, start the car and run the climate controls to circulate the ozone through the system. After a few hours, turn it off and let the car sit sealed up. After that you would not know if there was a skunk ape living in your hatch....

But DON"T breathe the ozone. It kinda smells like after a thunderstorm, kinda sweet and metallic. If you can smell it, you are hurting your lungs.


This is what they bring in after a body has been rotting in a house for a couple months. They really work....
