Default Front End "Clunk"

My first post about my first Mazda.

I just purchased a 2010 Mazda 3 5 door sport and have an issue that is driving me crazy. At seemingly random frequencies I get a clunk coming from the front passenger side of the car. I had the car for three days and took it back to the dealer. After driving around with the service manager he said that the clunk is coming from the front suspension bottoming out and that it is normal and stems from the "tight suspension" of this sports car

This clunk happens over pot holes, speed bumps, while turning etc. I also have an older BMW M3 which I would consider more sporting that the Mazda and I don't bottom it out.

Is this a common problem or normal? It is driving me nuts.

Thanks in advance,
Brad
