Is it necessary to warm up a BMW M9 engine before driving?

I recently purchased a BMW M9 and I'm wondering if it's necessary to let the engine warm up before driving. I've heard conflicting opinions on this topic and I want to make sure I am taking care of my car properly. Can someone please provide some insight on this matter?

Warming up your engine before driving is not necessary for modern cars like the BMW M9. In fact, driving your car right away can actually help warm up the engine faster and provide better fuel efficiency.

It's a good idea to let your engine idle for about 30 seconds before driving to ensure proper lubrication and to allow any fluids to circulate throughout the engine. However, you don't need to let it sit for an extended period of time. Just a quick warm up is sufficient.

As a BMW M9 owner, I highly recommend warming up your engine for at least a minute before driving. It helps prevent any potential damage to the engine and also allows for a smoother start.
