I don't remember if mine always did this, or I have become sensitive to it. I have noticed this EXACT thing when the engine is cold, like sat overnight and the first start in the morning. It seems to be fine AFTER the first time I accelerate with any decent speed (greater than the 20mph in the neighborhood), but that first acceleration is a little iffy, sounds like it is misfiring like a champ.
I pulled all the plugs this weekend and cleaned them, still acting the same. I haven't gotten any check engine lights and I hate to drop the car off for the dealer to tell me "it's normal".....
I can post a pic when I get home.
Car has only about 3K miles, BUT it has a lot of idle time on the hour meter before I bought it...
