I will let it warm up for a few minutes (until heater starts working) if I'm feeling particularly cold. But that's for me, not the engine.

Edit: That's not just for Zs (I drive a Challenger now) - applies to all modern cars.

Didnt know that you ditch the 370 already.

Challenger is a nice choice. Very intimidating on the road specially on Black!
