Base vs luxury steering feel

Can anyone comment on differences between the steering feel in the base and luxury models? Forum expert StanNH has noted that the steering in his base car felt lighter than in a luxury model he drove, but suspects that may be a variation between individual cars as opposed to an engineered difference. Anyone else have experiences between the two to get more data points on this question?

There should be no difference. I believe Base and Luxury share a standard "Comfort" suspension that sits 15mm higher than the Sport suspension. Steering feel should be identical provided the same size wheels and tires.

I have the sport suspension, is it possible to change it as I feel it's a bit to harsh for me. If yes, is it costly?
