Default 1998 Subaru Impreza 2.5 RS - Loud Engine on Cold Start

Model: 1998 Impreza 2.5 RS
Kms: 55000
Last oil change: Oct. 13, 2005 @ 52800kms
Purchased: Summer 2005 @ 51000kms

Audio file of Engine starting @ -10 degrees C:
Listen To Subaru 2.5 RS Cold-Start


This doesn't sound normal and is much louder than our 1998 2.2L impreza brigton wagon. Would the engine size cause the extra noise?

Listen to the file and let me know if you think its normal or if I should be taking it in to be checked out.

If you need more info, let me know.
