On some cars you can slip a piece of cardboard or thin paneling right in front of the radiator to do an easily removable radiator block for cold operation.

Also, you could put a electric heater in the inside of the car on a timer. That way it will be toasty warm when you get in for your commute.

You might save a few pennies on gas, but you'll spend them on your electric bill, preheating a cabin that gets cold again as soon as you open the door, unfortunately.
In cold weather operation I run with a radiator block (see above), an auxiliary heated seat cushion and I wear a wired jacket that I plug in, accommodating heated 12V motorcycle gloves that I wear while driving. If your butt is warm and your hands are warm, that's what matters most. BTW, the heated gloves were the best $100 I ever spent.
