Newer Corvettes with fully independent suspension are much better off 'round corners than their older counterparts. I dare say they'd do the job better than many European sports cars because of their extremely low center-of-gravity and tuned suspension... However, what they've earned in handling they've lost in smooth driving characteristics. Even newer ones can provide a bit of a harsh ride (I've only been in an '01 at the latest on the road, but have read enough on them to suggest that what I've mentioned rings true).
