As Caradvice correctly stated, they're polar opposites. Grunt vs dynamic finesse.
Just cause 1 guy didnt know how to drive the car doesnt mean its slow. Look at the F1 this year, Ricciardo and Vettel had the same car but one guy didnt like boost and the other did. Does it mean the car is slower?

Same thing here. Clearly the guy driving it doesnt understand how to drive the XR8 to its limit. Thats all I saw in that review...
