vibration in the gas pedal

I have a really irritating vibration through my gas pedal noticed at most speeds - of course, more notable at higher speeds/rpms. I've never felt this in any other car and it definitely doesn't feel like a tire balance issue (no steering wheel vibration). It does remind me a little bit like the vibration I used to feel in my hands and wrists while riding my CBR600F4.

The vibration is so bad that it actually begins to feel like a stinging sensation in my foot and leg. Is this anything like what any of you have experienced with your vehicles?

This is my first Porsche (hopefully of many to come) and a long time in the making and I'm a bit terrified of it being a flawed or having to endure a terrible experience with PCNA.

Thoughts????

I haven't noticed anything through the pedal, sorry.

However, my car's going to the dealer tomorrow for a few little things, namely I want them to try to fix the remaining few squeeks and rattles in my convertible top. It rattles a lot when it's up.

The dash rattle I had from the gauges has disappeared on its own finally, I dont' know how but I'm happy.

My hand brake now squeaks really bad when it's near the bottom of its arc. I'm thinking that they can just oil that.

Other than that, the car's pretty good! One thing--they put the washers on my exhaust and that got rid of most of that vibration/rattle/shaking sound I heard around 2100 RPMs but I still hear it quite clearly when the engine is ice cold. Hmm...
