Is the smell good really a point of contention for prop plane enthusiasts? They like the smell of leaded gas?

I'll be real, I prefer the smell of big plane jet exhaust. depending on the model it can smell like banana bread. smaller planes just smell like getting hosed down with like turpentine and car exhaust
