You can however keep a travel bottle of cologne in the car. Thats what I do. The wife loves the smell of CK and high octane.
Seriously, Rotaries only smell bad with the stock ECU. I have no cat on my '86 and it will idle smoothly at 14.5:1 and run elsewhere about 15.0:1 and there is no odor at all except if you floor it (then it smells like oil smoke from too much injection due to a modified OMP linkage).

My '91 has a cat and still smells bad.

Congrats on the pass Brian!
