Default Weird noise when turning off car

I got an 07 350z and when I turn off my car I hear this weird propeller sound/rattling sound like the fan is loose or somthing. Its pretty loud, loud enough to hear it from inside the car. Is this normal? Do all 350z have this sound?

Thanks

what do you mean "already doing that"? This is not normal for a new 350z? Should I take it in to service?

'05 base does it since new. It is normal and like the other member said most likely the tranny/clutch. Don't see any reason to worry.

Normal. If you don't like the noise, push the clutch in when you turn the car off.

Flywheel chatter.

Get used to it.

And if you plan on upgrading to a lightweight flywheel and a better clutch in the future... Get used to it being even noisier than it currently is

i experience this as well, HOWEVER, i have the feeling that all i need to do to remedy this would be to i push in the clutch when turning the car off, i don't know, just a strong feeling...
