yeah i do the exact same thing lol. i let the idle at least settle then ill drive. ive noticed this cars water temp gets to operating temp pretty quick. as for oil temp i have no clue
Interesting that some folks are reporting their cars warm up so quickly. My '08 250 does not reach normal temp (almost mid point) for close to 10 minutes and others have reported the same. Guage does not even move past "C" for at least a few minutes. I live in San Fran Bay Area so temps in the AM are in the 40's.

yeah my water temp gets warmed up pretty quickly at least compared to my MR2. my IS warms almost twice as fast as that car
I let the car warm up first. Like what others said the first 10 secs idle high. I let the RPM go to normal before I drive. if im not in a hurry i play 1 song to let it warm up.

A few minutes to get past the "C" doesn't sound too off IMO when the temps are in the 40's & your car has been sitting outside the whole night. I don't DD my IS so the times I get to drive it, it is already a bit warm outside but I do notice my IS takes slightly longer to get to normal temp then any of the cars I've had.
when i go to work in morning. my dad always open gate for me because i kinda in sort of ghetto partish and I'm one and only baby girl in family lol I get in and wait for couple second and roll out.
