I have a question for everybody on here. I drive a lot of different cars at my job, and I just wanted to know what everybody's number one sports sedan is.
Pretty much if money was not a factor what sedan would you by. I would get an Audi S8 V10 (I didn't drive the W12) it rocks!

As for my favorite sports sadan... Maserati Quattroporte or the Mercedes CLS 55 AMG (kinda because the guy had every massive attack CD in the changer lol). Both were very fun to drive.

nice I likde the Maserati's nice power but they shift late
Uh...yea Jason my stage 3 center force clutch was sick! grabed real hard and the best thing is they don't wear out as fast. I would get that before a puck clutch if your going to daily drive your car.

Thank you very much! I'll be in stop and go traffic, so I can't have anything too insane. I don't mind a stiff clutch, but not one that would force me to pull to the side of the road to take a break in traffic.

WHAT!? are you kidding me. dude, in autocross you put it in second gear and go.... I autocrosed my RX-8 for 3 years on the stock clutch. many, many race days, practices, and pro solos..... trust me.. thats not the problem.
daily driving will beat a clutch up WAY WAAAAYYY more then the 2 or 3 auto X days you have done.
now since it has died in 9 months... that tells me you either had a defect, or you slip your cluches like crazy.
get yourself a nice stage one, and your set. in yout stockish car you dont need anything higher.

And I just talked to my dad, I didn't realize swapping in a clutch was so much labor, so I'll probably have Lucky 7 do it.

What do you guys think this squeaking is? It goes away when I put pressure on the clutch pedal.

ABSENCE: swaping the the clutch is easy...well yea like jessie said get two people, just don't force it in by puting bolts on to lock it down it should slide in.
Renton:I think your throw out bearing is wearing out. thats what it sounds like.
