White Smoke

So today I started my car after a couple days, and upon ignition a puff of white smoke came out of the exhaust, any reasons why this might have occurred?

Most likely water condensation. If you have some miles, it's not uncommon for a little oil to get by and sit in the cylinders. When you start, puff.
As long as it's not an ongoing stream of smoke, you're fine.

A valve can hang open and allow some oil into the cylinder if it's been sitting.

my old 911 turbo would do that sometimes if it sat for like a week or so. would only happen at start up and after smashing the throttle for a few mins wouldn't return again unless it sat around.
