Try driving an SE w/stock suspension and then drive a GXE/GLE w/stock suspension and you should get your answer

I haven't driven an SE, but my GLE sure likes to sway when I take corners hard. I'm still driving stock everything as far as suspension, have 205/60/15's on it and boy does it sway....

I drove both before I bought mine and while it has been some time I don't recall any difference in suspension stiffness. My understanding is that the differences lie in the cosmetics and packaging mostly. The SE does have liquid filled motor mounts which I'm pretty sure the GXE's don't.

I've a set of SE stock springs and would be willing to trade them at even par if anyone's interested. You pay shipping both ways.

The H&R's are much nicer though and the drop is small.
