If you smell gasoline inside your car while you're idling or driving, you probably have a fuel leak somewhere under the hood. If you only smell it while idling, it is probably leaking somewhere between the fuel tank and the engine - wind passing through the grill pushes the smell out behind the vehicle instead of into the cabin. There are several different places fuel can leak from. A leaky fuel line or fuel filter would be the most likely sources, but occasionally fuel tanks can leak from damage or seals. Either of these would be reason to get your vehicle to a mechanic as there is a huge potential for fire.
If you only ever smelled it once, it may have come from some other vehicle or a fuel station.
