35 thousamd miles here in two carrera gts . Have done every track from Brands Hatch to Monza with everything in between ( Spa, Ring etc etc ). Original clutch .
Never missed a beat . If engine is regularly serviced should last much longer than that .
Remember cgt engine is seriously under tuned .

..you must be a genius..one reads about so many C-GT clutches replaced after 3000Kms..and yours is there since 35000 miles..

Engine: seriously undertuned..by how much?

Well I am a genius but thats not related to the clutch life . The cgt clutch can apparently last north of 100 000km , if used correctly .
many owners simply refuse to put in the effort to master this simple process . Use the anti stall to move before applying the throttle , job done .
I use mine in central London traffic , Rome etc etc . No issues here .

As for the engine it is in a very conservative tune indeed .

175k. That was back in 2010 btw. I am pretty sure the car has around 300k on it by now.

You release clutch slowly without applying, or very little throttle.

^ what he said. You can get the car rolling from a stop without using the throttle. You just have to release the clutch pedal slowly.
