German has some fine words, often not found in single words in other languages. Schadenfreude is an obvious example, which has found its way into the English lexicon.

They also have a single word for these antics by the German football coach
Stuhlgangsgenuss (enjoyment of your own unsavoury odours)

But this is a new word for me, and somewhat more savoury:
Kraftfahrzeugsinnenausstattungsneugeruchsgenuss (enjoyment of the smell of a new car)

Any other glorious car related German words?
 
When visiting Germany, you better not forget to take with you your Kraftfahrzeughaftpflichtversicherung (Car liabilty insurance).

And a nice expression I read on the German Caliboard: Eierlegendewollmilchsau, egg-laying wool-milk-sow, this is what you would wish your Cali to be: a sheer impossible combination of practical usefull attributes.

Glorious scrabble regards from Amsterdam,

Marc.
