Wondering about warm up

I have my Fd parked in the garage when I start it up I right a way drive it out about 100' out of the driveway so I dont die on the fumes.Is it bad to drive it that far before a full warm up?Maybe bad for the gears or clutch.
Thanks for reading.Didnt run the search because didnt think anyone thought of this.

NO! Dont do that!!! It will kill both your gearbox and your engine.

Hehe J/K

It's fine to do that if you stay out of boost and less than 3K rpm. In fact i let mine sit for less than a minute and i start driving it slowly without boost, less than 3K until it gets warm.
