Default Break-In Issue or Warranty Time?

Question from a newbie (me)

Bought a new 06 GT about three weeks ago from the dealer. It's my first 'stang. I have put on 600 easy miles, no hard driving, no abuse. When I start it, and the engine is cold, I get a short puff of white smoke of out the exhaust. It isn't steam. When the engine is warm, and I start it, no smoke. I checked all fluids, all are OK. Everything under the hood looks normal, no leaks, no smells, no obvious issues.

Is the smoke common (to be expected during break-in), or do you think it is something more serious?

Thanks.

Congrats. I have about 4600 miles on mine, it does the same.
