Black smoke on start up???

So i'm having my Girl move the 55 out of the garage and i'm standing behind the car,she starts it and puff a cloud of black freakin smoke comes out.??
wtf???
It did it just then and that was it.
The Car was standing over night,i didn't drive it in maybe like a day or so.

Any toughts?
Does it just need to be opened up with a few WOT to get all the residue out,or is something actually not ok???

Thanx Guys!

Black smoke is fuel,and it means the car is running rich when she first starts up. If it was blue smoke then your car is burning alil oil on start up which these cars are somewhat known to do when they sit over night and start up in the morning..

Check your fuel filters next time at the dealer.
