Question about oil temperatures

Hello all! Been a while since i've posted on the X forums. I wound up selling my X and getting a 2010 MS3... I wasn't happy with it so I bought a 2011 370z. I have to say I love the car. I miss little things about my X, but the 370 is lots of fun :-)

My question however is with this car oil temperatures get quite hot... i've had mine get to 220 degrees with just normal driving. Nissan apparently didn't do so hot in their development of their oil coolers.

I'm just wondering (and I know for each car it's different) what do the X's oil temps run? They don't have an oil gauge and I never knew that.

With a turbo and such you would think it got pretty hot, but anyone have an oil temp gauge?
