It's normal.
You want to see a high idle then park it outside overnight in 5 degree weather. When I went out the next day to start it, it cranked over like a champ and went all the way up to nearly 3,000RPM for a moment or two before it started to come down.

I have read where there is an override / defeat of the cold high-idle on the RX-7, and wonder if this is true and if it works on the RX-8 also. IIRC, it involves starting the motor with the clutch pedal pushed in and the transmission in gear.

It is normal, but not normal if it stays at that high rpm...
