I've experienced this symptom in a number of cars, but fortunately not the Evora. When it happened with my '07 Carrera S, I had the dealer replace the throwout bearing. Didn't make one bit of a difference. I wasn't alone in my complaint, either, as several P car owners described the same on the Rennlist. Prevailing thought was that the dual mass flywheel was the cause. I eventually learned to live with it.

The buzzing feeling in the pedal and the vibration through the body of the car from harmonic imbalance at 55-60 mph drove me to distraction until I somehow found a way to stop obsessing over it. I just about drove the local Porsche dealer crazy seeking to learn what the cause was and how to fix. And yet all I ever heard was "this is normal for these cars."

The difference between sport based motor mounts and luxury car motor mounts is the culprit here. The difference between a stock Elise and one with stiffer mountsis profound as a comparison. They have already compromised on the stock setup quite a bit on the Evora.
So you're saying the Evora mounts are much stiffer?
