Look at the TSB post. There is a TSB for this problem.
Woops-- just looked at TSB's and don't see it but there was something posted about this problem. Try a search.

This was an issue with many early production cars. There is a service bulletin posted on this here. Search for a list of service
bulletins and you will find it. Bassicaly they add insulation under the console. Take it in and the dealer will handle it.
Enjoy your 8. Had mine 11 months yesterday and still loving it
