Response from Nissan about Oil Cooler

And I agree with Nissan's explanation.

Well i think its a load of sh*t...

2011 and 2012 are listed backwards.

Explanation makes sense, but it's a little self indulgent, as if they did it all on their own just to be nice. If they hadn't gotten so many complaints from people and magazines, they would have never added it.

Of course I'm glad they did since mine is a 2012.

Sometimes it pays to wait.

Hmm. How long you been waiting? I don't think the lack of oil cooler is make or break issue with the purchase of a Z. I don't have oil temp issues but if I did, adding an aftermarket oil cooler isn't a big deal.

Since the summer of 2009. But it was not because of the oil cooler issue, it was purely financial in nature. I had no clue about the oil cooler being included for 2012 until last week. I ordered my car back in August. For me this waiting ended up being pure luck, at least in oil cooler terms.
