Your suggestion to add a clause to contract that the auto-equipped car will not excessively vibrate when engine warm, in Drive, and stopped.
How would you quantify the vibration?
How often are these type of clauses added (I had never heard of it before)?
How well are they followed?
My test drives of Linear and Aero auto's both included some vibration stopped in drive, that surprised me for this nice/expensive of car. I think that it got better after car had been warmed up for a while, I'll certainly do more test driving. The salesman's excuse that all 4-cylinders do it, and other's on this list attributing it to (relatively) large pistons (2.3L) doesn't follow my experience with my Prelude's 2.2L.
Another clause that I would consider would be the dealership providing a loaner vehicle (for warranty work) that isn't some POS, like the Buick Century another owner posted to the board a few weeks ago. Someone suggested that being a condition of sale.
