Question Question about first cold start of the day

hello fellow rotorheads,

my question is this. when i go to start my 8 for the first time every day the ignition is rough and the idle til the engine's warm is rough as well. kind of like a sputtering type thing. is this normal or does anyone else do it. i have had my car almost 2 weeks and just wanted to make sure my dream car is running right. while driving she's fine and every time i start her the rest of the day she's great.

thanks!

Perfectly normal. The engine is cold. The car is simply warming up.
