also, if you start it, and then turn it off without letting it run for a min, sometimes you will get some smoke the next time to start it. For example, turning your car on to move it a few feet and then shutting it off. The next morning, there is about a 10% chance that I will have some smoke.

Just as an Fyi, my GT2 never smokes at startup, and I never let mine idle for very long before I shut her off, the opposite I usually blip her a few times just to let everyone in the condo know the GT car is back in her closet, haha

Mine smoked yesterday morning at a cold start. It smoked so bad, I had to shut the windows LOL.
my 991.1 did it as well and my dealer told me it is very normal. The oil on the flat six will settle at the bottom and cause the smoking. Make sure it is not a blue smoke and you are good to go.
