When you find out, let me.

In 1992 we had an 88 Civic wagon AWD. Made in Japan. 80K miles or more
on the clock. You couldn't even feel the engine running. Went out and
bought a brand new 92 Civic Si, made in Canada.

I said to myself, "why can I feel this brand new car shaking at idle,
when I can't feel the old car doing it at all?"

Man, that bugged me.

That being said: 137K miles later, that 92 Civic Si is still running
very strong, is on its original clutch (those weren't all gentle miles,
trust me), and looks showroom shiny. My nephew has had it for a couple
years now.

I wouldn't worry about it if I were you, but it's certainly a legitimate
question.
