IMO, very little body roll in Sport mode and certainly not rolling over on tight turns at speed. Probably not on rails though as that is how I would characterize the cornering of a true sports car or smaller sports sedan. It tracks very sure and confident around corners.
Mine came with Bridgestone summer "touring" tires and I think it would be even better with high performance summer tires. I recently changed to performance winter tires (Blizzak LM-25) for the season and I like the handling even better which has been a pleasant surprise.

Question ..... what is the power transmission setting and what does it do? How were you able to get a special order so quickly? I placed mine on October 20 and still have no idea when I will get the car. When I placed the order, they said at least 3 months. Like you, the Smoky Granite and Verdigris were my favorite colors. I would be happy with either.

As soon as the feeding frenzy stops, I'm going to test drive one. It is a bit bothersome that I have to upgrade to a $10,000 L package just to get a decent suspension.
Last car I drove that cornered as if it was on rails was an Audi A6 with a 4.2 l V8.

then i guess the 550 would be even more impressive. i drove both and the 550 is quite a bit better on handling
