The E90 3-series, like all other newer BMW models, has more than just the Engine Temperature Warning light that comes on when worse comes to worst. The rev-counter has a series of lights all the way around it, much like the M3, but the lights are much better executed and have no visible gaps. When the temperature of the engine is low, the lights will extend all the way to 4000rpm or so. As the engine comes to operating temperature, the light bar retreats back to the 7000rpm mark. The lights, therefore, provide you with all the information you need to determine whether you can use the engine to its full pontential yet or not.
The warning light is only needed to determine if the temperature is too high.
