Test drove G35 today- have some questions

Hello g35 drivers,
I have a question regarding the g35 transmission. When i was driving the car, the shift know vibrated a little. Is this normal? it was not very noticeable but i was watching everything the car did.

Overall, i thought the car was great. It sounded awesome. I saw the MPG recorded on the navigation and it was 22 miles per gallon, so i thought it was one of the good ones. Hopefully you guys can help me with my question. Thanks in advanced!

I know on my '04 6MT the transmission is direct linkage, so the vibration is normal.

If you buy it, just be sure you don't rest your hand on it when you drive!

It's not a problem - it's common with a direct linkage transmission
