Default Whining upon acceleration at low speeds

14 GS 350 RWD here @ 50k. I'm getting a whine at low speeds until about 30 MPH. I thought it was the transmission, but paddle shifting doesn't make the wine go away. Is this normal? When I test drove the rep was like, yeah I hear it too. Car seems to be driving and running well it's just whiney at low speeds.

It's normal. My 14 RWD does the same thing.
