You are not turbo'd or supercharged are you?
How many miles are on the car?
Any coolant colored gunk in your exhaust?
If you open your oil filler cap is there anything white in there?
Is your car consuming coolant?
white smoke and your thermostat acting like it is may indicate blown headgaskets...Your combustion cycle is forcing air into the coolant passage and air pockets are building up behind your thermostat and restricting hot coolant from opening the bi-metical thermostat element.

75k miles
No coolant gunk anywhere
Nothing white in the filler cap
Never had a coolant consumption problem
I said head gasket in my first post :3
Edit- apparently this is the wrong thread, could have sworn it was thus thread I said that on O.o

For your sake i hope its just the thermostat, headgaskets can be costly to replace if you can't do it yourself. Good luck!
