All I can suggest is different tires. The OEM tires are supposedly not the very best- but choosen because they are more than competant and they are run flat. Run flats have a stiffer sidewall so they can run with no air in them. This stiffer sidewall might contribute to the sensation youre having but I dont know. Personally I like the comfort run flats give you, but when it is time for new tires I will investigate alternatives to the OEM tires.

Aside from that, I note that the car is sensitive to road conditions, and at most speeds (up to my max of 110 once) it feels great. But its a shorter wheelbase than other cars and it sometimes wants to "dance" a little bit.
