i went to start my car for the second time before i take out of storage, now for some reason it smokes out of the right rear exchaust pipe. It didnt do this last week when i started it, does anyone have any suggestions to why this is all of a sudden smoking out one pipe? oh its white smoke!!

Collected exhaust=you can't tell which rotor is smoking. White exhaust? does it smell like coolant? oil?
It could be water vapour from the muffler from sitting....

I'd say if the smoke doesn't cut out after about 10 minutes or a short drive you've got problems with coolant seals. My FC's always have some white smoke in the morning, then it cuts out when the exhaust comes up in temp.

If the exhaust pulses feel equal between the 2 tail pipes, I would vote for condensation in the exhaust system, perhaps a leak on the smoking side that allows water to be drawn in while parked.
If it was a coolant seal, it should show from both pipes.
