Let the car idle a bit longer before you drive it. Because even in neutral the gears in the gear box are being spun and that warms up the oil.

But imo a good synthetic oil shouldn't have issues in the cold. On the stock fluid I noticed it performed significantly better in the cold weather vs. then hot summer, so that probably means the stock oil might be getting too thin in the hot summer. I'm hoping redline dctf will be able to bridge the gap and keep the performance good in the summer and the winter.
