Idle issue?

I only have about 170ish miles on my FRS, but lately, at a few lights or under deceleration while clutch is pushed all the way to the floor, the RPMs have dropped below 500 (maybe even 400), and the car shakes for a second or two as if it wants to stall, then bounces back up to about 900-1000 RPMs before going back to the normal 700ish. Could this be part of the break-in period? Computer still learning? Normal for boxer engines?

I wasn't worried about it the first time or two, but it happened again today on my way to a car meet. Today was roughly the 5th or 6th time.

I am a bit stumped

edit:

Those having this issue, I suggest at least calling Scion and reporting the problem, if not just bring it into the dealer. This issue is still very new to them.
There are plenty of us on here having this issue, and the sooner we report it, the sooner the ball will get rolling.

Here is the number if you plan on calling 1-866-707-2466
Make sure you have your vin and miles on hand when you call!
