I feel it as well... not to mention my throw out bearing seems to be making more noise than normal. It only has 14k miles on it so far and the sound seems to go away when I press the clutch down.

When driving the car at low speeds it also tends to make a clunking sound.

I don't think its anything serious, could just be the bearings that are used in the clutch kits, but I find it a little loud for a new car.

This may be related to the CMC issue I read about on here. Failing or weak CMCs could be wearing out the other clutch components faster than normal... I don't think that is going to affect the TOB but hey, you never know. ;-)
