Still on your factory clutch? Come on in.
Lets do some research and see just how long the factory clutch is good for in the 2005-2007 Cobalt SS Supercharged. I know there are plenty of variables as to how long a clutch lasts, but if we could get a running average going based on the amount of miles driven, that could prove useful in the future.

I'm at ~70,000 right now on mine (09 SS), with lots of stop-and-go, countless launches, and highway miles too. It has recently started slipping a bit at WOT this winter with E85, on Trifecta.
It probably has many more miles on it if I brought the power down, but I think I'm going to go ahead and change it out while I'm working on this winter's car project.

ummm 83,500 miles later I can still rip through second gear like crazy. Im on the stock clutch. Been staged since, oh, 12k miles or so, and been down the track 9 times. Im guessing around 250whp with my traps and what not.
