Almost, GLEs come with liquid filled compression bushings,
and urethane front suspension bushings, while GXEs don't.

Is it a noticeable difference?

Couldn't tell you, never ridden in a GXE, only SEs and GLEs. However, many people replace their rubber bushings with urethane because it doesn't compress as much. I would imagine that the difference would be almost unnoticable if you compared to a SE vs. GXE suspension comparision.

I had a '95 GXE then I bought my '96 SE and I didn't feel much difference. The SE feels like it corners better.

The GXE and the GLE are supposed to have the same suspension. I have a GXE and it rides good as Sh*t.

Yeah like I said, the bushings are the difference. Look above.

I have a GLE and the suspension does seem a touch firmer than a GXE, not as firm as an SE though.
