shaking problem when the car is at stop....does this happen to anyone else?

sometimes when i come to a stop in my clk, the car just starts shaking pretty violently. it doesnt go unnoticed as passengers notice it. i'm assuming it has something to do with pushing the car too hard when the engine isnt warmed up? i really have no idea. what other possible reasons could it happen? ive driven many other sports cars and ive never experienced it with any other car. its been happening for a while...and it happens every once in a while, not too often, but often enough for me to raise an eyebrow..does this happen to anyone elses w208 clk55's? any help would be great, thanks.
