Due to the fact that the engine is horizontally opposed, a small quantity of oil collects in the cylinders when the car is sitting idle. It burns off the moment the car starts again, causing the bluish\whitish smoke on startup for a few seconds - ususally never more than a minute (though it will last a bit longer in colder climates)

Perfectly normal, nothing to worry about.
