FWIW, that's what my gauge looks like on highway drives pretty much all summer. Stop and go traffic in hot temps will do the same thing after a period of time.

But 280F and limp mode in stop and go traffic is definitely excessive. If that photo was from a 30 mph average cruise without traffic, there is definitely something wrong. If you keep it, find a competent Z mechanic to diagnose it and do the work - dealers are fuckin idiots.
