INTERESTING QUESTION...

I thought of this the other day, and would like some (educated) input on it as I would like to know the answer.

IN PRINCIPLE a piston engine works the same way as a car engine - right?
So on a cold morning when you start your car, why does your car's exhaust spit out steam, but the same does not apply to a piston aircraft / Helicopter?
