My 2012 Mazda 3 makes my 5's suspension seem soft.

I really need to do some aftermarket work on my suspension, because my 2012 3 makes it feel soft. My 2012 3 has some of the most taught stock suspension that I've ever owned on a vehicle. I heard many people say it is " German like " in the way it rides and handles, one review I read said it is the best driving car this side of a Miata . The 5 handling is already better than a lot of compact sedans, but I want more out of it. I know feeling "soft" is relative, but I want my 5 suspension to be just as taught as my 3's.
 
If you like "German like" handling, get German springs and shocks for your Mz5 = H&R+Bilstein Sport (rears would benefit from a revalve since they are spec'd for the MS3).
