SO how bad is the oil temp problem? I'd seen some comments on here, but this is the first I'm hearing someone say they wouldn't buy the car because of it.
The actual problem isn't really that bad if you don't regularly track the car. (To be fair, some would argue that point and note that they've hit high temps even in regular driving.) What has people so riled up is that even if you're willing to install your own aftermarket oil cooler at your own expense (which many people are), Nissan is taking the position that if you do that, they'll void your warranty. So it's adding insult to injury. First they don't bother equipping the Z with an oil cooler -- this when every Z that they released to the press for testing and evaluation was equipped with hidden oil coolers. Then they have the audacity to penalize us if we decide to add our own.
