xli brakes are better then city 05. i had both the cars so i know. plus because the new rolla is wide , therefore it doesnt swing alot as city does.
i also had a few mods on my car so mayb factory specs might be different. i had both my cars lowered (lowering springs) and both had 17" wheels.
1) i am seeing alot of ppl complaining about ABS braking. last time i applied emergency brake on my xli at 120km , the brakes did not lock me at all.
all i can say is that the new xli brakes are not tht bad but when u need the brakes the most , they alwaz seem to respond badly
