No they aren't as fast as a VTS.

And IIRC 0-60 is around 9 seconds?

Don't quote me on that though.

All anyone ever cares about is if a Corsa is faster than a Saxo or vice versa

Do you not buy cars for other reasons with the performance of it being only one of those reasons. e.g. also consider comfort, handling, age of the car, styling, reliability etc....
