Doesnt sound like you have the same issue as me. I dont have much vibration in the shifter, the vibration is throughout the whole car. It doesnt happen only at cold temperatures, it happens all the time. The faster I drive, the more it shakes.

So I think i confirmed its a driveshaft issue. I jacked up the rear and ran the car with the wheels in the air. The vibration is still there. The wheels are spinning perfectly straight. It was hard to tell but it looked like the driveshaft had some vibration/run out.
