If changing gear most of the time at 6000 or 7000 rpms, will the clutch wear out quic

My Boxster has Tip, too, it's an interesting tranny to drive. I've had manual boxes for ages, so like everyone else here, I'm well-versed in using a manual on the road and track. My Boxster has Tip because the car was the best deal I was looking at, and my wife isn't a big fan of manuals and I figured she'd like it more.

Turns out it's a pretty fun setup. As Jaxonalden says, it performs very well. I took my car on a 250 mile mountain run a few months ago, where I figured I'd have it under manual control the whole time. Turns out that I found that automatic mode worked better for the speeds and conditions I was driving in, as it was much faster at downshifting to the optimal gear for passing, did all the WOT shifts at redline, and held the gear when going off throttle after passing. I couldn't have done better manually. With extra HP of an S it would have been pretty awesome.

Sure, you lose the direct connection of a manual box, but for 99% of the driving you do on the street, it's pretty nice.
