Quite recently I've have this vibration, where the entire car shakes once I'm doing greater than 50+mph in gears 3-5(duh), ONLY during acceleration. Its really weird. I intend to get my wheel balances checked soon, although I have my doubts as this being the shaking stops if i coast/brake at the same speeds. There are no issues with turning etc, as I try not to at 70mph.
Also the problem sometimes disappears for short periods of time, and just that, the vibrating stops! Very odd. I have had my motor mounts changed recently, for the record. Any suggestions? This post has been edited by samir0189: Nov 26, 2008 - 7:39 PM -------------------- ◊◊◊ My F/S Thread! ◊◊◊

WOOT! I fixed it guys! I had both my CV drive axles replaced a few hours ago, and the vibration is gone!!!! The car is as smooth as butter, I remember why I love it so much.
 So to sum this up i guess, if you have a vibration that is not poor wheel balancing, check your axles! For the record, these were the original axles i replaced at 241,100 miles, and the boots weren't busted! Isn't that amazing?! But they were worn pretty bad and obviously they were due for a change. -------------------- ◊◊◊ My F/S Thread! ◊◊◊
