Scare at Start

This morning (60 degrees in the garage) I go to start up the 2011 35i and it shuddered rather dramatically for several seconds as though it were going to die and NOT start.

It DID start normally, however, and everything seems OK, but it did give me a bit of a fright. This is not normal on this vehicle.

(although I now understand why people ask about the weird startup sounds)

Is it developing a problem already at ~3200 miles? If it were COLD, I could understand (a little) but it wasn't.

I was tempted to hook up an ODB reader to it to see if it spit anything out, but I didn't have time this morning.
