How about for those of us in SoCal?
It can get cold once in a while during the winter months... If one doesn't track much (2-3 times a year), would the oil cooler even be needed? In my 335i, it's a necessity due to it being twin turbo and also pushing over 400whp... What is the normal operating temp for the Z? |

Most people consider normal operating temperature to be 180-240F with maybe a few trips to 260F and back. Once you get above that even the best synthetic oils start to break down.
