I currently have a 99 M3 and am thinking about getting either a new M3 or an M5. I just test drove an M5 and noticed that the clutch was fairly stiff. It was a used one with 13K miles. The clutch on my 99 M3 is softer, but the throw seems about twice as long.
So, my question is, does the stiff clutch become annoying when driving in traffic?
Thanks.

Shouldn't be stiff. Could be worn. noka 22:40 4/17/2002 (0)
