XE's were only produced until 1983/4.
XF were produced 1984 to '87.
Major styling differences were made between the two models.

^ it didn't take too long for the peanut gallery to come around

and no, you watch a show/movie of that era and the cops generally had commodores, seeing as they were the only local V8 offering amongst other reasons.
