The car's coolant system does not run excessively hot. Usually 185-186 under most conditions. Surprisingly cool actually.. Hot oil will also raise the water temps a bit but Generally 195 is the hottest I've seen while moving and it was echoed by an oil temp of 210. Stop and go may bump that to 200 but rarely hotter. There does not seem to be that much thermal transfer between the oil and water system. The cooling system is pretty robust from what I've seen and regulates itself well. The thermostatically triggered fan (if you leave the car sit idling with the AC off) will come on at 212 degrees and turn off at 202 FWIW...
