    It is the fourth day with my new C. I love this car. So much so that today I decided to sit in it while having my morning coffee. The temperature was perfect for opening the moon roof while also using the seat warmers and so I started the car and sat in it for twelve minutes until I was espresso-less. Only after my second cup did I think to question if just sitting with the car running might not be good for it. Any thoughts?

    Well, it's idling, which means it'll run cold longer, but it can turn the engine off rather than having to idle for all that time so it's not ideal but I'd suggest less harmful than it would be in other cars.
