Anyone think the acceleration for our GS 350 F Sport is slow?

I have a 2014 GS 350 F sport and I feel like the car's acceleration is really slow.

Also when I am turning sharp corners, I seem to be leaning towards the door a lot. So much body roll. Any one else experience this?

You guys think it's those crappy bridgestone tires?

I test drove one and felt it was unusually slow. I know some cars have a learning ECU, that learns the drivers driving habits. Sometimes reseting this helps some. Don't know if that applies to the 4GS or not.

The GS350 AWD is quicker in the 1/4 mile due to better 60 foot time. 13.8 @ 101.8 Mph as tested by Road&Track back in the day. Just need to properly disable the traction control and it launches out of the hole!
