There have been a few discussions in the past about that noting that if it becomes a more heavy vibration it indicates a worn out dual mass flywheel. I always hope it's just the engine mount or transmission mount. Hope doesn't always work, but most of the 20+ 986s Ive bought had a bad engine mount.

AS JBauer said, run, you can do better than this.

That is valuable information, the car has 91.000 mls and I am not sure if it is still on its first clutch. Currently doing the chain + guides but will drive until the clutch or other problems will occur. Thought about the engine mount an think I will change that soon!
