i'am a new member looking to buy a new 370z ,i live in hot as hell lake havasu az .116 yesterday . i test drove a new 370z auto w sport pkg and was able to get oil temp to 245 in less than 10 miles of driving,first 7-8 miles on hwy temps were around 220-225 then i on purpose down shifted to keep revs 3-5k for a mile or so temps rose fast to 245 then i backed off being a new car i didnt want to run it at 6-7k rpm as that would have really raised the temps. i think regular driving in our extremely hot conditions will require a oil cooler,my sales rep is checking with a nissan rep about heat issues here.lake havasu regulary gets past 120 in summer months!!
