For comfort, make sure it has stock springs and get Monroe sensatrack type shocks. Subframe connectors will make it feel more solid. As it sounds stock, you probably have shot shocks and that surprisingly can make it ride rougher. Next check out
suspension bushings.
Good advice, if you want ride quality, then the SensaTracs are your best bet and priced cheap in most auto stores. But as mentioned before, check your swaybar bushings, your tierod ends, and balljoints also. A visual check can tell alot, if you have your original jack or any jack capable of lifting your front end one side at a time, then you can do the jerk and pull method to see if you have balljoint and tierod issues yourself to save a few bucks and to give yourself knowledge also in case a mechanic wants to throw the book at you for what is wrong and end up paying for things not needed. And if the shocks are to be replaced, make sure the isolators are in good shape. When doing the jerk and pull method to isolate a possible balljoint or tierod or hub bearings is to jack the front tire on each side individually and put your hands on the tire first at 12 and 6 o'clock, pull and push on the tire like in rocking motion (push with your top hand and pull with your lower hand back and forth) to feel if there is excess play, then do the same by putting your hands at 3 and 6 o'clock and repeat the process. 12-6 will show if you have a bad balljoint, control arm bushings and possibly a hub bearing, 9 and 3 o'clock will help feel if you have a bad tierod(s) and control arm bushings.
One other thing to help save you some money. If you are going to get these items fixed, in most cases it is cheaper for you to buy them ahead of your mechanic visit, take the parts in with you and ask that they be installed. That way you are only paying for labor and not there (supposedly) great costs on parts. I do not know how many times I have seen people pay more for a part that the mechanic located vs you shopping around and getting them yourself. Also, anytime a mechanic wants to identify a problem needing to be fixed, ask the mechanic to show you and point to where they are talking about so you can visually see for yourself what looks bad or not and if they were identified as bad, ask him how he came to that conclusion and what means he used to identify they are bad. If what he or she says sounds like bullsh*t then it usually is. Believe me it helps in reducing your costs if you are in money saving mode and in a pinch.
So key things to look over once again, tierod ends. balljoints, swaybar bushings, control arm bushings, shocks, isolators, hub bearings.
