CPO question

When you buy a stick shift car through the CPO program, do they replace the clutch or is it the original one? How often do you need to replace it?

I drove my first 3 series (e30) for 250,000+ miles with the original clutch. It was still going strong when I sold it. That car just wouldn't die...

the CPO does not cover it. The extended maintenance does... got a new clutch after I bought my M5 with that..

no, they don't replace the clutch. (BTW: M5's eat clutches...my boys is burning its clutch after only 40K, my M3 didn't have that problem )
