Quite frankly I kind of wanted an aftermarket clutch/light flywheel from the start anyway, which is why I didn't care too much. I can hardly stand how horribly slow the RPMs drop and how slowly I have to shift from 1st to 2nd to make it smooth.
Why is this dealer issue only coming up now? That was not mentioned in the OP. And you say this is your first manual, but now say you "want an aftermarket clutch/light flywheel from the start". How did you become aware of the possibility that the dealer had damaged the clutch? I'm not trying to beat on you man, just trying to get the whole story.

How many miles/km were on the car when you bought it?
