MT Maintenance
I will be purchasing a coupe 6mt; however, I have a concern because my daily commute to work (30 miles) takes about a hour and a half because of heavy traffic. I don't mind the foot work out but I do mind if my clutch wears out a lot quicker than usual and I have to put a lot of money into replacing my clutch. You think a hour and a half of stop and go traffic, five days a week, will kill my clutch? Any input would be appreciated.

clutch? u wont need to replace it for along time.. just practice not reving so high when you start in 1st other then that the guys that do drag launches all the time are putting way more stress on their clutch then u lol
just:
1. change motor, tranny, and diff oil at 1k miles (i'd do it sooner tho)
2. change motor, tranny, and diff oil to syn at 5k (around there)
3. keep up with your basic maintenance and it'll last next to forever =)
4. keep her clean

they'll put in regular. u're supposed to use regular until a certain mileage before you switch to synthetic. my dealership told me to wait till 30k mi. to switch my tranny oil to synthetic.
