Well said. That's exactly what it is. Our tranny isn't known to be that quiet

You can't definitely call it a bad throwout bearing without inspection and I doubt it is this because every 6MT G35 and 350Z I know of does this to some extent unless you hold the clutch down.

I didn't say it was bad or going bad

just that it was normal for our 6MTs to do this without the clutch depressed. ....Sheesh.

I'm just playing, no worries... But yes, unfortunately, this is normal for G35's and 350 Z's with 6MT... I've gotten used to it and I have 84K now with no problems, I just always hold clutch down when shutting engine down.
