Suspension Question
I am possibly going to buy an 07 ES 350 from my father in law. I'd rather buy an IS, but the price he'll give it to me for is going to beat any deal I could get on an IS.
Before I make the purchase, I would like to ask about stiffening the suspension just a little. I've been searching a lot here, but it seems all the posts about it deal with lowering the car. I don't want to lower it, I'd just like to get rid of a little of the body roll and nose dive.
Can I purchase stock Camry suspension parts to do that? I understand I may loose some of that super soft ride, and I'm ok with that. My only suspension experience is in lifting old Jeeps, so this is new territory for me. Thanks!

I've had a similar experience and would suggest you consider the following:
- Move to a UHP tire - it's amazing what a good set of tires can do to change the handling of a good vehicle. I moved to the Michelin Pilot Sport AS3 and love the ride.
- Replace the shocks with a performance shock like KYB or move to coil-overs.
