High RPM on first (cold) start is normal, as it heats up the catalytic converter to keep emissions under control. The fan clutch should also engage, as it is filling with the fluid from the clutch's internal reservoir. After about 15-30 seconds, fan should spin down. The engine RPMs will likely remain high for up to 5 minutes. If you go drive somewhere for 3-5 minutes, then come to a stop and put it in neutral or park, what are your RPMs then? In gear, it should be about 650ish.
