Well I can't really comment on speed but as standard I think it's fairly accepted tha the C is better handling.
In addition to that, I think that comparing spec to spec (where possible), generally speaking the C's are of higher spec, and dare I say slightly better build quality (IMO!!)

what they like on performance? ... only 15bhp more than the sxi... cant help to wonder if an induction kit will have the same growl as the b sport / sri's

Seemed a fair bit quicker IMO, felt more than 15bhp difference if you know what I mean.
As for the 'grrr', mine sounds pretty plesant with just the induction kit on right now, should be much improved once the new exhaust goes on

I'd hold out for the 1.6 Turbo if you could afford the insurance?
I'm certainly considering trading mine in against one when they're out - and mines only 6 months old now.

I wouldn't bother with the 1.4 in my case, i get 0% finance on the Sxi, and also some insurance goodies. I just made mine look like an Sri
