Default Normal coolant temp?
I finally pulled the pin last week and traded my C6 on a 2016 Z06. Awesome ride. I know this has probably been beaten to death but what coolant temp do you guys average under normal driving conditions? I'm just talking highway cruising and around town. No fancy stuff. It seems to run a little hotter than the C6 and I want to know if this is what's normal. Thanks

I think the number you're seeing is normal.
