I have never seen oil temps. above 250 even while driving up long mountain grades in 80 deg. temperatures. I don't understand the frenzy about overheating unless a good many owners flog their machines. These are highly engineered cars with an excellent quality rating and they don't come cheap.

You hit it right on the nail. The Nissan 370Z was perfectly well engineered by mechanical, electrical, and electronic engineers why have their Masters Degrees and Ph Ds. On top of that these same engineers are Japanese who have a reputation for always doing excellent work. If the 332 HP V6 on a 3,300 pound car is overheating even though everything is working as designed, then it is not the engine; it is the driver. Everything overheats if it is overworked. In this case, it is no different.
