the manual says to drive the car immediately upon start-up's. When i drive mine first thing in the morning without letting the car idle for a few minutes, the car feels a little sluggish and hesitant. after the car reaches normal temps all feels well again. do you guys let your car idle for a while and for those who don't does your car feel the same way?? thanks for your input..

I will drive it immediately, but will baby it until it's up to full operating temperature.
It does feel a little more sluggish at a cold start.

I always (well, except when I'm in a rush) let mine idle until the revs drop below 1k.

Mine feels fine. I'm at 50,000 and have never idled at cold start or at shut down. AS

I attempt to idle warm-up my Turbo (to at least some temperature needle movement) before driving.

I drive mine within 20-30 seconds of start-up and it seems to run just fine. I do baby it until it is up to full temp, verified by a drop in oil pressure at idle.
