Yea, pretty normal. Even autos do it if you let them decelerate.

im pretty sure its just unburnt fuel vapour popping in the exhaust, nothin wrong with it at all,most cars do it just cant hear alot of em doin it. i reckon it sounds alright, specially in lumpy V8s Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
