I'm New

Well,
I did a test drive and was unpleasantly surprised at the vibration felt in the steering wheel and brake pedal at idle. It was really bad. More than my truck or even my Datsun roadster 4 cylinder. Is this common? Has this been a topic on this website? And the fit at the rear, especially the top cover wasn't good. Everything else was wonderful, but a lot of time is spent in LA traffic at stop lights and the shaking is objectionable. I know high HP and compression and light flywheel contribute to this but it should be isolated better. Comments? I'm going to try another dealer.
