Mine is the same way. I rarely hit above that.
BTW, those of you who don't wait till the oil temp gauge is fully at the high temp point, are not the ones I'm addressing.
There have been posts on this thread as well as others where folks are overly concerned about driving their car, it seems not much past idle rpm, until they reach this magical temp. And, many say it takes them about 15 minutes of more to get there. My 135i even in the 60's ambient doesn't take that long for the oil temp gauge to start moving.
