There arent many 3.2 owners in this forum if any so i'm not sure you will get much help. Anyways why would you rev in park or neutral? How bad of a vibration is it?

I just discovered it when i bought the car and have never known an engine to do that. It vibrates enough that you can feel it through the steering wheel and seat... it shakes the car.My concern is that there is an underlying cause that could end up damaging the engine later on.

Of course you would get vibration from bad motor mounts that goes for any care. Pop your hood and have some one stand outside and look at the engine or you. Then have someone or you inside the car and put it in drive. Put your E-brake up all the way and give it gas also do this in reverse. If the motor is shifting alot then its your motor mounts.
