Probably your tires haha. What did is smell like? rubber? any smoke?

the car is fairly low mileage and if you haven't gotten on it hard much it could be a number of little things associated with breakin period (clutch, lubircants, CATs )

could be your clutch (not from the rear, though), but it sounds like it also might be libricants etc. as well. I wouldn't worry about it.

Do you have a catback? When they're new they burn off a bit and smell funny.
