If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

How many miles on the car?
Have you driven another identical car for comparison?
When was the last transmission fluid service performed?
Have you taken it to your local Honda dealership to see what can be done about it?
Our newer automatic transmissions are known to develop torque converter shudder if fluid service is neglected.....it stands to reason the ishift trans can as well.
I'd suggest fluid service as a first step, and it's far cheaper than a transmission replacement.

Seems like low mileage....Probably ought to drive another identical car so you can see if it's just a normal quirk you aren't used to yet.
