i just picked up my car yesterday and i have the same problem. it's not too much the noise that's bothering me, but the FEEL like there's some kind of slop in the driveline. it shakes and shudders and clunks. if you dont disengage the clutch just right, it feels like the entire tranny is moving and shaking around under the car.

my '99 miata had a very similar problem (although much worse), and it annoyed me so much that i'm gonna sell it.

some ppl have mentioned that their wrx has a similar problem, but mine has been perfect. i *love* the clutch feel on my wrx compared to this car. it feels tight and connected the pedal pressure is just heavy enough (the 370 pedal feels way too light to me).
