OK that tells me that the car is designed to do that.

My question is there any reasoning to set that program? Again, as I said, I can shift a manual transmission whenever I want and I've never had any negative effects regardless of how quickly after start driving after ignition. The manual doesn't say that the same thing is done for 4-cylinder automatics.

If there's no real benefit to it, I'd rather have it turned off (but that seems impossible given what the manual states). Guess I'll have to resort to the old practice of warming up the car before driving (engine will run lower so hopefully it'll mean less gas).
