When I replaced the drive belt, I revved the motor several times with the cover off and the motor did not move enough to make me believe the mounts are bad.

Plus the noise is usually noticed at very low throttle positions. It really sounds like the trunk is open except it seems to be lower. I've checked the muffler (the dealer replaced it right before this started), but it seems to be firmly attached.

Also right after the dealer replaced the muffler, I was in a hurry and turning left near WOT from a traffic signal, I heard something pop like a bolt broke, but I can't find anything.
