It seems like alot of cars are differant.

I usually let my car (CLS-6) warm up until my scangauge reads 150F or so before pulling out in the morning. I have found over the years that this method works for mein avoiding the 'cold engine stumble' discussed in the thread below. YMMV

Never had the cold engine stumble issue. Just a slightly higher idle which means I can cruise out to the main road without having to put my foot on the gas.
