If so such a difference between yours and mine looks rather weird.
Use standard 95 octane fuel which at the moment contains 5% ethanol. (E10 is being introduced during the summer with of course no views of the common motorist being heard).

We run four V6s here, three are used on a daily basis and all record roughly the same running temperature 92 - 95 degs, run with ACC active. I believe the standard thermostat opening temperature is 88 degs, so I'm quite happy with 92 - 95 especially as several others have confirmed the same sort of results.

Keep well
