Cold air induction

(silly question) Is it me? Or is this cold freezing weather that's hitting the west coast actually making my TT feel faster?

I love this cold weather when Im driving, but I really hate it first thing in the morning, my car cant heat up quick enough, by then time I get to work its warm. 10 minute drive to work, and I start up the car for like 3-5 minutes before driving. I need heated seats, but sure do love the accelaration bliss with this cold dense air!!!!

We had a high in the twenties today...first time in a week. Still can't see the road in front of my house with 5 foot mounds of snow on both sides.
