Default do the springs eventually soften?

I just received my IS250 AWD last week. I would like to know do the springs eventually soften up (create a more softer ride) after the break in period or as the car ages?

You don't actually want the ride to be softer, do you?

It should, but not too much.

Just keep in mind that the car is performance oriented, so it will have a stiffer ride compared to other Lexus. Also, the AWD adds a little extra weight, making it a more firm ride compared to the RWD.
