Default 7th gen: Accord V6 gas pedal vibration

'07 Accord SE v6 CPO @ 60K miles.
Had it for 2.5 weeks now.

Slight vibration at gas pedal. Is it normal?

It will randomly go and come back.
Most obvious present situations are when accelerating
at normal street driving or freeway cruising around 70mph.

I have the same symptoms as these guys:

There seems to be TSB on similar issue, but that was for 3.0L Hybrid.
TSB 07-059 OCT 07 Engine - Excessive Engine Vibration/DTC P0A14

Any other 7th Gen owners v6 owners who had it since new, experience this?

Perhaps an Accord thing?

How does you guys' 7th gen accord (4 cyl or v6) gas pedal feel?

I wasn't expecting camry butter smooth but I definitely feel the slight
vibration/buzz/mechanical feedback to the gas pedal.
I mean is this normal for accord?

Any input will be appreciated, thanks.

Recently I noticed that my entire footwell is vibrating.
Not just the gas pedal. I can def feel it in the footrest
and while holding the brakes at a stop light.

It feels like something transmission related, on freeway entrance ramp
or going slight uphill on freeway when I accelerate the vibration seems to
get worse.

Is the mounts going out at 60k miles??
Btw I got this car 3 weeks ago CPO.

Please any inputs will help. Thanks.

Call the dealership and see if they can look at it?

I came to conclusion that it's normal.
I took it in to the dealer, said normal.
I took it to indep. mechanic I knew, said normal.

Finally..

The salesman who sold me the car actually told me to bring it in for test drive.
He drove mine and said was normal (he owned 05 v6) and he let me test drive
2008 EXL v6 CPO and new 2012 EXL V6. They pretty much had the same
vibration feedback on the gas pedal. 08 had more feedback then mine actually,
and 12 model was less then both of 07 and 08 but was definitely noticeable
with my thin sole shoe.
