The Z CAN be driven spiritedly. You can even get a couple of hot laps on a track before hitting limp mode. It's a high performance road car, not a factory race car ready to compete in 24 hours of le mans. If you drive it like it's meant to, on the road a bit spiritedly, or down the mountain roads, 99% of the time you will be fine. Hard to argue an oil cooler is a "necessary upgrade". Limp mode is almost exclusively a track occurrence that happens after 3-4 minutes of hard lapping.
