Thats why I don't expect to see the 2010 sporting an oil cooler. Though someone else on this forum mentioned a quicker, easier (though less effective) approach to cooling the oil. Something along those lines is what I would expect... not a outright admittance that the Z needs a cooler, but a slight remedy.

For all the owners who do have oil temperature problems, do you think I would be plagued by this up in Michigan? It seems like most of you live in hotter climates (i.e. Texas, Arizona, Florida).
You could be right there. I live in Ohio and had the car for three weeks now and have not experienced any overheating issues. But then I have not driven the car very hard yet. Within the next few weeks I will be going to the dealer to get synthetic oil put in, That should help providing better protection.
