Depends on what color the smoke is. A heavy white cloud witha sweetish smell could be antifreeze. Blue smoke is generally oil. Smells a little like fresh paved asphalt. Remember also that if you live in the north and it is cold you will see more exhaust smoke than normal. You may want to have a professional check it out to be on the safe side.

If your car is blowing a white smoke you could have condensation build up in the muffler. This is easy to fix, it needs a good long run on the highway to evaporate the moisture. If it is blowing grayish black smoke it is most likely that your rings have worn out and need to be replaced. One last thing that can be causing this is your fuel and air mixture is to rich for the engine.

I agree with Toby , but will add that you may need valve gaskets as well as rings.
