Driveline vibration on S500

I've had an interesting drive-line vibration develop and I'm wondering if anyone here can help me source the problem. Vibration can be felt more at slower speeds and it's rhythmic. From a strong takeoff, it 'seems' more linear - not quite like the long pulse normally. The rhythmic pattern is what seems a bit odd - I've thought wheel bearing, flex disc, half shaft, out of balance driveshaft, even diff. Anyone have experience with a similar problem before? Any insight would be great.

2003 S500 - Toyota Corolla (in the rain)
Transmission mounts could also cause a vibration.
