A lot of times I don't close the door right away because I let the car warm up and get out after starting it to inspect the car or tinker in my garage for a minute or two.

I do a walk around before I get into my car.
Once I'm actually in the car, things get interesting.
1) Usually dig stuff out of pockets while brake+start button happens
2) Plug phone into aux
3) Adjust climate control

I usually put the windows down with the remote to save a step after I get into the car. This has saved me seconds over the last month and a half when it has been warm enough for the windows to be down.

Almost exactly what I do except I wait for the engine to start making it's way toward operating temp. ie LED moves at least one spot towards center.

Also didn't put his seatbelt on till about 2 mins into driving.

I was curious whats the first 3 things people do when they step into their Z.

For me:

- Push Start
- Seat Belt On
- VDC OFF

I let RPM's come back down to 1K, Ipod kicks in on the nav then drive away


Yes....its a slow Friday here at work lol
