However I was seeing 240+ during normal street driving and that is too hot even in the middle of the summer.

I did a oil cooler and I'm seeing about 200 during normal driving and 220 during spirited driving.

All of the others cars that I've had that had oil temp gauges never got as hot as this car. This includes some supercharged and turbo charged cars too.

I'm in total agreement. That's why I have an oil cooler sitting on the floor behind me, ready for install.
