Unless my car is sitting in my garage I always put my M6 in gear with the emergency brake engaged. And if I am on a hill I angle my front tires to go into the curve in case the above fails.
Can you reproduce this?
I think the dealership could be liable for selling you an unsafe car. At the very least they should fix your transmission for no charge for something overlooked during a safety inspection.
People have been killed by vehicles jumping out of park. If you had even a sip of beer and your Z ran over a pedestrian I bet you would be sitting in jail right now eating green eggs and ham.

Yeah that's why i was worried i was coming back from the casino an wanted to deposit my winnings into my account through the ATM machine. It is a six speed that is why i had this problem. I always put it in first or reverse when i park but i just figured id leave the car running for a minute. honestly think its because when idling the shift knob vibrates pretty aggressively and maybe that had something to do with it no idea though
