New (to me) 2001 9-3 and some smoke...

I just picked this car up the other day, having upgraded from my old '94 900s. Today after work, I started the car up and noticed a bunch of smoke in my rear view. I was on the lookout for this when I bought the car, and the place where I got it just tuned, lubed and oiled it. (the mechanic is Saab Savvy). My old 900s would do this occasionally after sitting all night, and after burning off after the initial startup would be fine. I drove home during rush hour, so I never got out of third gear to check if power is affected. I think it's fine, seems ok, had not happened before, I dunno? I've noticed a smoke issue with turbo problems on other posts, and I'm new to turbos (my 900s had none) so, I'm not sure what to look for. It's got nearly 42K on it. Of course it's 6 0'clock here, and tomorrow is Friday before Memorial Day weekend, so getting anyone to look at it will be impossible till later next week. I was so excited to drive this beautiful Saab over the weekend.
