I have 70K Miles on 03 6MT. No issues. It's my daily ride to work thru commute traffic so you can bet there is lots of shifting going on.

04 with 57000 miles, no problems knock on wood. I use synthetic gear and manual tranny oil at 30k. Next tranny/gear change due in 3k miles. I learned manual on this too so for the first 3 months, I was smelling my burning clutch

Does the clutch sticking to the floor count as a transmission prob? LOL guess not.

No actual tranny issues yet on '06 with 25,500 miles.

I have a 06 manual that I bought new,clutch shifts very smooth have never had a issue with it after 13000 miles.I get that throw out bearing ratttle sometimes but from what I have read here it isnt a major issue My Z is under warranty up to 75K anyway.It seems like most of the transmission problems are in the 07s and 03s
