According to the gauges plugged into the OBD2, I run around 90-95C most of the time in my 3.8.

With the cooler weather have you been driving with the air con. off? Around town mine will run at about 96 with the air con on but with it off the fans don't kick in until about 105 so the temp. fluctuates between 96 and 106.

Mine runs exactly the same... problem is..... it religiously ran at 89 regardless and rarely over a 100... currently I sit at 100 regardless now will drop lower in lower gears...

Interestingly will climb in 5th and 6th gear...
