1. ANS: MY average (in summer time) normal driving about 220-225F. If A/C is on, it goes down to about 205-210 (215 maybe). If you're not attending HPDE (or similar track event), you don't need an oil cooler. After breaking in your car, get a good synthetic oil. 2. ANS: There shouldn't be any difference. It's the exact same car. 2010 gets heated side mirrors and cabin air filter - that's it! 3. ANS: With this question, you're opening a can of worms. I properly followed the break in procedure given by Nissan engineers. Currently I'm at 19,500 miles. I do not have excessive consumption or any other issues. But, there are members who left the dealership doing burnouts and their Z is fine as well. Very controversial subject. You probably just have to follow what you believe seems right.
