There are other threads on CL that also describe this issue, so it's not just my car. But I can say it is much improved with the coilovers.
I've had coilovers for so long I can't remember how it felt stock. But I'm going to agree with the dealer that there's probably nothing wrong with your car. It does have more structural rigidity with the top up. This is true of any convertible, particularly a hard top.

Actually my car feels better with top down, without the hard top rattling over my head. It is true for my other convertible too.
