I think most people just hop on the bandwagon when something seems logical. My XE felt just as good as my Sport. The fact the Sport had shite brakes didn't change much

They dont handle. Iv had big block corsa and a small block corsa, as well as my small block nova. A big block will handle nowhere near as well as a small block, for one you cant put the power down through corners in a xe, although you can easily do it in my small block nova running the same power as a xe.
In my old turbo corsa i had fully adjustable coilovers, polybushes and whiteline ARB`s and still didnt handle all that great, i hat to imagine what one is like with just shocks and springs.
