These cars have a transaxle; transmission & final drive in one unit. Consequently the entire unit is lubricated with gear oil instead of a typical and thinner manual transmission fluid. This thicker oil takes longer to warm up, and this is what you are noticing.
I could see it using a bit of oil on an extended run in cold weather.
