I'd verify the TSB on the flywheel/clutch was done or consider not buying the car. I'd say it is a pretty big deal and most of the GT500 forums I was on felt the same way. It's about a $5k fix if you have to pay for it. Oh, and the warranty is only 3 years.

I just had my car at the dealership last week for the cd player quit working. My warranty was up last Friday (2008) car. I to was concerned about the clutch tsb even though my car shows no signs of the flywheel problem. they told me that the flywheel was the problem and the tsb covers the flywheel which has to be sold as a complete kit and that was part of the drivetrain warranty which is 5 years or 60000 miles. They told me that they would perform the tsb anytime as long as I met the powertrain waranty time line and the car was showings problems with tsb guidelines.
