Reference warming up your Boxster

1. My 1999 Boxster has 229,500 miles.

2. I live in Central Texas, so it doesn't really get all that cold here (but how cold is all relative:-)

3. Since the Boxster is a modern car with electronic fuel injection, I don't recommend wasting fuel to warm it up. I just don't rev it (past 2500 rpm) until it reaches operating temperature.

4. Having said that, if I lived in Alaska or somewhere where it is normally at or below freezing I would let the car idle in the garage (with the door open) for 3 - 5 minutes before I drive off.

Just my two-cents
