for the longest while, my start up has been horrific. i have had to replace the starter twice in the last year. it roughly takes 3-4 seconds to start up. if i have drove awhile and let the car warm up quite a bit, its starts up instantaneous. lately i have been hearing a whine come from the rear end so im wondering if thats a fuel pump? not sure if it has anything to do with start up but figure i would add that on.
