Mine smelled too. Big time! My belt also went, but I heard it squeal from Saturday to Wednesday before the crank pulley went. I'm guessing it's the "burn off" period. Many of the Toyota's that I've had smell similar when new.

I have noticed a smell every now and then after I pull her into the garage, but I always thought it was tire... Or as another post mentioned, my driveway is on an incline, so I also thought it might be the clutch. When I had my Corsas installed last Tuesday, I had him check her from stem to stern (including the crank pulley bolt), and everything was normal...
