It is normal for these cars to smoke a bit on start up especially if it has not been run for a while or if it was recently run for a very short period of time. Nothing to worry about unless it keeps smoking.

If you want to do simple maintenance at a parking space, I'd highly recommend Rhino ramps or similar as an easy to use and easy to store way to raise up the car.


Congrats! It looks like you got a nice one.
