Boxtaboy had the exact same symptom, and it turned out to be the front motor mount.
If you don't want to get under the car, you can get a pretty good look at the mount if you remove the engine access panel behind the seats. You will see it near the center, at the lowest edge of the opening.
If your look is not conclusive, start the car with the panel off and rev the engine. If the mount is toast, you will see a lot of movement (torquing) of the engine.
Be careful when you remove the panel if you start the engine. Lots of rotating parts!
