Just drove home with my 06 RSX Type S from the dealership. There was a
burning smell coming from the engine. Is it normal??

Probably oil burning off the exhaust. Don't worry about it. If it's still
there a week from now, then call the dealer.

A certain amount of this is normal as the various anti-corrosion
treatments burn off. Remember that your vehicle has endured an ocean
vogage already.
