I had this exact same problem and had it in the dealer for 5 different occassions. They finally found the problem by performing a "leaky injector" test. They found three fuel injectors that would leak after shut off. This would cause it to be hard to start after it sat for a while. Have your dealer look at this problem. I had the fuel smell in my car as well.
