Default Shifter idle?

I just picked up my new S2000 today. Silver with Red Interior. Boy that Red is bright here in the AZ Sun
cool:
Always wanted one, now I got one.
Traded in my 2000 Eclipse GT 5 Speed.

Question:
I recall my '97 Prelude's manual shifter used to vibrate slightly when idling at a red light or when stopped. The Eclipse never did that. I notice the S2000's shifter vibrates slightly like the Prelude's.

Is this normal for the S2k?:

Completely normal because the shifter uses direct linkage instead of a cable.

Makes sense.
I had the Eclipse in 2x over the course of 2.5 years to have the cables replaced/tightened, because the cables started making a cranking noise after every 10-12k miles. All covered under warranty though.
