Pretty much every other car I own, including air cooled and water cooled porsches warm up much faster. Granted they have different larger engines, but given EPA regulations, it seems odd to me that this car would take so damn long to warm up.
Point is that it will get to 160F in the same time as any other thermostat that opens at any higher temperature than 160F.
