    and the exhaust fuming coming out were so strong and stinky. There were no other cars. I had the AC in my Prius on recirculate.

    Why would a Camry be so stinky?

    It could be possible that the catalytic converter was interacting with motor fuel with a high sulfer content and putting out hydrogen sulfide, ie, a rotten egg smell.

    Or it could be one of a bunch of others things wrong with a paricular auto in need of service or repair.
