Vibration level @ idle
My car runs great. But when idling I can clearly see and feel the empty passenger seat vibrating a bit. Do you guys have the same? If not I am now at 100k miles. Should I consider engine mounts?

Mine does not have the level of vibration that you mention but it is stock. I would inspect the motor mounts, I'm not sure if they are liquid dampening if they are look for leaking if not worn bushings etc. Bottom line I would replace if they have not been done in 100k but of course if you go for a stiffer mount it might be worse.

Ive got 17k miles and the passenger seat vibrates enough to be re classified as a sex toy. I do have a tubi exhaust but the shaking is what I would expect from a 427 with side pipes.

The stock motor mounts are liquid filled - check for leaks. I have 85k on my '01 with solid motor mounts and it runs very smooth.
I had vibrations in my car when the clutch slave and acc. were going out. It was straining the belt circuit at the power steering pump due to a leak in the line. Basically, the vibrations can be from a number of different sources.

I cant speak for the 911 since mine has 13k but have owned a lot of cars and almost all needed new motor mounts around the 100k mark. My Audis are liquid filled and they started leaking.
