Like Ray N. said above, the 850s ride even stock is more on the harsh side, not at all like your friends Lexus. My friend's Lexus IS300 is towards the sporty end of the Lexus/Toyota line but still soaks up these MA roads.

I think if u want to make a compromise between handling while having a better ride to go OEM, with Boge struts and shocks. You can find them almost anywhere, IPD comes to mind....as well as places like TireRack.com. You could go to a softer setup but might get even more body roll in corners and less sporty handling.
