At a constant cruising speed, I think it is normal for an M104 to run between 87-90.

If the temp is abouve 85 degrees and I'm in stop and go traffic or if I stop the car at a stop light after a run on the freeway, if I sit there long enough, my engine temp will steadily go up until the high speed fan kicks on at 107.

It is perfectly normal.
