My Bricklin runs 210 degrees in the Texas heat. It sometimes goes a little  
higher when I am idling at a stoplight. I don't think you can expect much  
better than that and it really shouldn't be a problem. Depending on your  
antifreeze mixture and the pressure rating of your radiator cap, the boilover  
point 
should be 240 or higher. Running around 210 won't hurt your engine any. As  
Seth said, many newer cars are designed to run at that temperature.
