I had the same problem with my Toyota once.  It seems the dealer,
during one of the regular service stops, had painted something on
the Catalitic converter.  Whenever the CC warmed up, the smell of
rotten eggs began to seep into the car.  I could not find out
what it was and the dealer never offered an explanation.  I only
found out a few years later when a friend mentioned that he had
the same problem and had found out what it was.  I was accusing
everyone in the house of spilling something in the back seat for
6 months.  Boy, what a smell.  Check out your CC and see if it
was serviced with this gunk.  If it was, good luck, the smell
hangs on for quite awhile.
