I would look at the tires first especially if you have the Pirelli brand. Start with lowing the tire pressure to see if anything changes for the better. You cannot rotate them due to the stagger set up but perhaps some road force balancing might be next. After the tires, I would look at the driveline such as the driveshaft for imbalance. Back to the dealer for that work. Good luck.
That's not correct the tires can be rotated, it is just different.

Front left too right, rear same.

My advice...

Before going to the dealer, I’d see if there’s anyone on this board more familiar with this car in general that’s willing to go for a spin with you - drive it - let you know their thoughts. At least you would have more knowledge of there actually being an issue. Reason I say this, is that it’s really likely the dealer is just going to say ā€œyup, completely normalā€ and send you on your way. Someone who’s had theirs for longer and maybe has more experience may have a different response.

I’m sure there’s a bunch of people nearby that would be willing help out...

Thats another reason to not buy the manual. 10R80 all the way!!!
I've owned five Mustangs, and they've all been manuals. With that said, after my last Mustang, a 2019 GT, I probably wouldn't buy another Mustang unless they replaced the MT82. I know it's a cost savings thing, but I can't help feeling like Ford has no clue just how bad the MT82 is. The one in my 2019 was bad enough to make me dislike driving the car. I put 600 miles on it in the year I had it and sold it. We'll see what happens with the S650.

No I haven’t hit anything with the car. It’s just the vibration mainly felt in the shifter and pedals (clutch pedal). Idle or around 70mph. If you not really looking for it, then you might not realize. The vibration in the passenger seat you have to really look at it.
That's all normal.

Cars vibrate, shake and make noises.

My experience with vibrations when driving have been balance, and 3 different cars - out of round tires. If the steering wheel shakes - front tires. Had one new vehicle had a bent (not dented) front wheel - dealer had no explanation.
concientious tire guy can see an out of round tire on the balancer. road force balancing should pick it up too.

Thats really where to start.

everything else mentioned are possibilities, but tires are the first suspect.

The tire mounter process in the assembly plant is really cool to watch btw. after inflaltion, they go through an automated balancer - then an audit balancer. Not likely they get out unbalanced, but nothing to detect a misformed tire.
