Agreed. Everything I've read indicates that brakes are not the Pathy's strong suit, and I would agree. They're not terrible, but they're no racing setup for sure.
But, a correctly done fluid change with thorough bleeding after definitely firms up pedal feel and reduces sponginess. It should remove alot of that 'give' and the brakes should start to bite earlier in the pedal's stroke. It's always a good (and inexpensive) place to start with the symptoms you describe for any vehicle anyway. A little air in the system can make even the best sports car brakes feel very spongy until it's bled out.
