I own a 2003 Tauras and as I have the car warming up for 5 - 10 minutes is smells like gasoline inside. Even when I do not heat the car up as I am driving this smell occurs and does not reduce. Regardless of the amount of driving I am doing. There are no leaks that I can find on the ground to show a leakeage? Does anyone have an idea why this occurs or approx the cost for repair can be?
I have always had my oil changed on time and the fluids checked and replaced in a timely manner.

Sounds like a fuel line leak. The gas may not make it to the ground because it is evaporating on the hot engine. This is a potential fire hazzard and should be checked out ASAP.
Check lines to fuel injector rails or fuel pressure regulator.
