There's a thread with a guy who supposedly destroyed his in 700 miles. That is way too much money to be spending so fast.

i would be a fool to state this has NOT happened,however from MY experience,
if you don't ''ride" the clutch,and keep it partially engaged by resting your foot on it,then theoretically it should last a very long time,and SHOULD be trouble free,IF it is a quality built unit. again,the "throw-out" bearing has proven to be the weak link in a manual transmission,as it is a part subject to a lot of stress over time! the idea is to shift and literally "get your foot OFF the clutch!" generally means no issues!
