My 01 S never blew smoke on startup except the week leading up to the AOS failure and occasionally after an auto-X run. That's its behavior from between 55K and 80k miles on the clock.
You could try keeping the oil 1/2 to 3/4 bars on the guage to see if that reduces it.
If not it could be a tiny AOS leak or a slightly less than perfect piston ring.
Nothing worth a lot of effort unless you start to see more symptoms or worsening smoke over time IMO.
