Question feel of G37S clutch

whats up, new to this forum, just picked up 08 g37s on Friday... been driving it none stop. I've noticed a difference in the feel of the clutch once i hit 500+ miles and was wondering if this is just the feel of a clutch being broken it. Its the first manual i've had but not by no means the only manual ive driven so im just not familiar with how they break in... besides that i love the driving experience and the all the features/technology in it

yeah, the first couple of days it was a lot tighter now it feels softer, and easier to put in gear, and im guessing its just broken it...never have had a manual from about no miles or one that i consistently drove for more then 2 hours but just curious about how the clutch felt at the first 500-1000 miles of driving (and i dont baby the car too much)..
