stock 08 mustang gt shifter vibration
I just got a new 08 Mustang GT a few days ago...
I'm not sure what to expect, and don't remember much from test drives of 07's months ago. When in gear, the shifter vibrates. Is this normal?
It's not ridiculous vibration, but it's enough that I don't want to rest my hand on the shifter... and if I do, my hand goes slightly numb from the vibration.
This is my first manual car, so I don't know what to expect. Is everything OK? Could I have broken something in my first day of noobish driving?

The vibrations you are feeling may be normal. All engines vibrate and the shifter is part of the drive train.
Edit: If your shifter is shaking wildly doing normal driving, you may have a problem.

Yeah, turns out it's normal. I drove my friend's Integra over the weekend and it vibrates almost as much. Interesting fact: Our shifters are ALOT easier to shift than the Integra.. (I wasn't expecting this, since an RSX-S I test drove shifted so smooth it was like a computer game)
