Default Question about clutch

I've had my car (My firt Porsche ) for a less than a month. Don't get a chance to drive it very much except for the weekend. While driving, I noticed that while I'm driving down to a steep hill and coming to a crawl to make a turn at the end of the hill before accelerating on to a new road, I can feel some sort of clunking of the clutch or brake (Clutch and brakes are both engaged but in neutral gear). I do not know what the clunking is but I've never felt anything like that with any other cars that I've owned. Is this normal? Or is this just a Porsche thing? Any input will be appreciated.

These cars do make some interesting noises- the e46M3 SMG I traded for the GT3 also made some very interesting noises when turning tight corners. Actually don't mind it- makes the car more unique! The air-pump noise when the car is first cold does sound a little disconcerting though, luckily it doesn't last long...

Its actaully funny, but I also came out of an e46 M3, and it almost seems like the M3 is a training vehicle for the GT3.
