There is the saying that the clutch lasts about four LC-starts, than it has to be replaced. Personally I don't think the number is that low, but LC definetely does the clutch no good.

so it seems my logic was wrong...it is harmful for the car. and you are right rossi ,i called the ferrari engineer ,he gave me the same figure than you did...4 lc will kill the clutch... so it is mostly a marketing BS,better not have it ... i had the same launch control in my m3 ,i did it over 30 times in a year,never had a single problem...i wish ferrari used the german getrag(i think)smg box instead of magneti selespeed

For me the LC button is an absolutely useless marketing gag, just to say "look, I've got the same system as Schuhmacher in his car".
Just imagine, how often you really have to use this stupid button: NEVER. Or do you do racing from standstill. e.g. from one red light to another? I don't.
So I don't bloody care if there's an extra button in the centre console or not. It even seems to me, that Ferrari puts all the useless buttons there in the centre console. Just realize, LC, Auto...

except for the reverse button... i also think that us cars dont have launch control
Who needs to go backwards with such cars? Just kidding.
Right, the US don't have the LC, I guess it's because of warranty reasons.

I havent asked yet my Ferrari Dealer, but about how much does the replacement of clunch costs?? anyone knows?

Better to sell the car within the 3-year-warranty...

The clunch is not in the warranty...
so if the the clunch costs 3000euros if we divide this by 4.. it is 750euro per LC PRESH...
I dont believe it...
