What it MIGHT be is condensation. Moist air in the exhaust pipe gets heated up creating steam and the steam is pushed out the tailpipe and it looks alot like smoke. If it is condensation holding your hand by the tail pipe when it does it you can tell. My car does this and if you go to the exhaust sound clip section on the forum and look at all the vids there you will see most of them do the same thing. I wouldn't worry about it.
