I would put my money on a funky axle though..
pull the driver's side axle out, give it a 1/3 turn and stick it back in.
fixed vibrations on more than a few front wheel drive cars doing that.

disconnect ball joint
take off main axle nut
tap hub assembly out of axle
pull axle out

When you bought your car at the auction, was it sold in the "frame damage" section? You are likely had to have your car inspected after auction, was it a reputable shop? Because if it is, then all of your suspension components should be OK, especially if your car doesn't pull to the side.
Like someone said, if you have directional tires, check that they are rotating in the right direction...And take your tires balanced at a nice shop, the one that carries the best balancing equipment (rotating speed at 80mph). Let us know how it turns out.

so are you saying your car was OK right after the auction...I know about dealer auctions...green light means 24 hr full refund policy and mileage under 100k, also applicable warranties. Who else may be admitted to choose a car to the dealer auction...'cept my ppl...govorish po rysski?????

the car was definitely hit in the front... if you look under your hood you can see that the front support bar (not sure of the name) is a different color than the car is.. it might be possible the frame isnt 100% straight

well if the alignment is straight then you should be ok...but if you want someone to take a look at it bring it to a good body shop and if they have a good eye they can tell if it's been hit.
did u get the tires rebalanced?

ok so if the mechs have gone over the alignment, and the tires have been balanced, and the suspension components have been checked out... including the tie rods and all of that has been checked out im guessing there is frame damage on the car .... out of curiousity ummmm have you checked the lugs on the rims ... if one isnt tightend enough or your missing one or something along that sort of lines the car will shake ...
