rough idle?

I notice the idling on the 04 TL seems a little rough. Seems some of it may be due to the exhaust though. My idling vibration in park is enough to when I can pop open the gas door and you can see the door vibrating in the first postion and also when you open it all the way. I know this sounds like a crazy analysis, but has anyone noticed this as well? Just trying to see if my idling is a charcteristic of the car or something wrong.

Just got my car yesterday and find the idle very smooth when in "drive", but just a bit rough in Park. We also have an ES300 and using that as a comparison, the TL is definitely a bit rougher than the ES.
