Default Stiffening 2011 GT

Hey All,

I currently own a BMW 335i and I love how flat it is in the turns.

I am considering getting a 2011 GT but when I was test driving it, I noticed a lot of body roll and I really didn't enjoy corners as much as I'd like.

If I get the GT, I'm already planning on lowering it (is coilovers the correct term for this type of suspension?). My question is, would lowering the car properly address my issue with body roll? Would I also need to add stiffer roll bars? Am I simply not able to tune out the body roll while maintaining a reasonably comfortable ride?

The other car I'm considering is the EVO which I can make about as fast as the GT for not too much money and handles a bit flatter although the numbers say that all 3 cars handle about as well.

Thanks!
