I haven't driven my 1M in about 7 months and am about to take it out for winter (I live in AZ). I remember wondering about this before and wanted to check with the group. Thanks
Hondas do warm up quickly. Especially 4 cyl models that only have 4 quarts of oil capacity.

My Subaru was a 4 and extremely quick.

Most BMW 6 cyl motors have nearly twice the oil capacity of a Honda 2.2L so..
