It sounds like your car is starting too rich (which is why when starved for fuel it turns over fine and why you have a heavy dose of fuel fumes during start up). I would check your air intake tract and possibly your o2 sensors. They may be sending a lean reading to the ECU and then the ECU is giving more fuel.
On the other side of that, you could just have a dirty intake tract literally not giving the motor enough air. Then you have your throttle linkage, if that is stuck open just enough, it will act as if you had your foot on the gas pedal ... although I don''t think it works quite the same with fuel injected cars as it does with carburated cars, lol. Regardless, before you start the car, blip the gas pedal to get the cable back (if it is the culprit) to 0%.
Another thought is that you could have a really dirty throttle body, intake manifold, filter, tract, etc.
That''s all I can think of right now, but it''s a start. :)
