Using a 172 and my Ibiza as an example - the weights are within kg of each other and geometry is adjustable.
I'm pretty sure me changing the geo to that of a clio won;t make it handle the same (trust me it won't - I've tried a lot of geo set ups)
How is the chassis so different that it makes that much of a difference? They're roughly the same weight, width, length and height. Theres stiffness, but is mine worse because it's stiffer - then why do people add bits to make the cars stiffer.
Personally I think its nothing like an apple tasting different to a mars bar, but thats for your well thought out, informed answer
