Rather than trying to get everyone involved to accept some form of legal wording on defining what is acceptable vibration and what to do if it exceeds this standard and then trying to enforce it (very low satisfaction quotient), it seems to me that the most straightforward way to handle this is to test drive the specific vehicle before you buy it and find out if the vehicle has this condition to a degree that is unacceptable to you. If you're happy with it as tested, then buy it, if not, then don't and go find another.
As to service loaners, I doubt any dealership will guarantee that a specific grade of loaner will always be available all of the time. They can't guarantee that at any given moment not all of their higher class loaners aren't out on loan. (A triple negative!) Even if they have 20 Aero loaners, on any given day you might be customer #21 and be stuck with the '98 Buick from the "pre-owned" lot. Instead, find out what the service loaner policy is and how many and what types of vehicles they have, then make your decision. Besides, just because you bought the car from this dealer doesn't mean you have to take back to them for service. Shop your service, just like you do the car purchase.
