pk2, if you are curious, do a search on the topic. The merits of the t-stat have been debated time and again. The temp reading on your gauge is a joke.

Porsche is more concerned with burning off oil containiments (for those extremely long oil change recommendations) than engine longevity, hence their choice in operating temperature.
