Cold starting and pulling off from stop. 986 1998 manual

We are in Winter here in NZ and temps are around the 4-12 deg C. The car really has to be idled for 3-4 minutes before is is even drive-able. The car is new to me and from when I bought it, it has always been hard to pull off. Need 2000+ rpm to get enough torque to move the car. I though that that was just the way it was.

Now I'm thinking that maybe the fuel/air ratio is a bit lean on small throttle openings and this is more obvious when cold and its need a richer mixture.

Any suggestions? Stab in the dark, airflow meter need a minor adjustment for off throttle, temperature probe somewhere not working correctly?
