That is not normal. After warm up, my car's temp gauge points exactly between the 8 and 0 at 180, and hardly ever moves from there, even after hard driving. Something is amiss in your cooling system, and I'd look into it.

Wow, if the gauge is showing 210*, I wonder what the real temp is?

We all know how "accurate" the factory gauge is, afterall.

Definitely get your car looked at before it melts down.
