Y'all are funny thinking Ive burned through transmissions.. my car has over 70k miles and I've not had any major issues nor have I had to replace the clutch or gears.
And..... I give it 2,500 miles.
Backstory: When I was in college, we were talking about cars one night (I drove a '78 Datsun 280Z, mint, sweet) and I started mouthing off and said something to the effect of "Of COURSE I can handle a car like that; I've driven it hard, but never even gotten into trouble let alone crashed it!" Not a week later, ran head long into a tree at about 65 mph, totaled the car and lucky to be alive, let alone walk away (which I did; when the first cop on the scene asked me if the driver was still alive in the car, I said "I was the driver" and he told his partner "watch him; he's out of it".).
