    I know there are lots of determining variables but in general, how many miles can you expect to get before clutch& break need replacing in your 550M? Assuming mostly city driving condition and good manual driver.

    I realize this is hardly scientific data, but the local dealer claims they have never replaced a clutch on a 550, including several local high mileage (45-50K mile) cars. Brakes are another matter entirely depending on how hard they are driven. I've known them to be changed-out after 10K miles of spirited street driving, and MUCH more often if used at the track!
