Like I said, out of some 20+ cars that's what I've noticed. Still, usually the larger the engine the lower the idle. Also the numbers I quoted were for cars with manual transmissions. Automatics generally idle 100-150 higher than their manual counterparts. Again from personal experience and reading service manuals. Really as long as it isn't idling at some ridiculously high rpm that'll harm the engine you're ok. I personally find the idle of a carbureted big block intoxicating.

So whos to say in your 20+ vehicles yours didnt have messed up idles? like he said it ranges from vehicle to vehicle. No need to be a dick.
You should see the 400 65 impala i'm getting, talk about an intoxicating idle......

Nope they were perfect just like me.

Seriously though they were at factory spec. If I were being a dick about it there were other ways to say what I did. I'm only a jack-ass if it's warranted. Besides the icon clearly shows I'm carefree and whimsical with my comments.
