It would need a driver, and the driver would be definitely the biggest factor, but coming from someone who has spent a good amount of time in a lightly modded '03 Z06 as well as my old RS and a few other nice handling light cars on twisty roads I say - no not necessarily.
Corvettes (C5 and up) are awesome handling cars, but better suited to high speed smooth tracks and road courses, not tight and sometimes bumpy mountain roads. Of course there are too many variables here (driver ability, car tune, the road) that this is all immaterial and useless conversation.

Tis true. My friends dad races for fun and took me on 128 by Lake Berryessa in his '03 Z06 (stock) and nearly made me crap my pants. He's def. one of the best drivers I know. But I get what you're saying. But I doubt Kyle is good enough to keep up with a decent driver in a '02+ Z06 on a decent mountain road.

I have a coupe... so just 2 lambo doors. I think I saw pics of lambo doors on the WRX and didn't really like that much. It might look nice on the coupe though. Who knows. Probably not for me though.

until the corvettes have a .5 gear under first, they arent going to pull away in first gear going 30 mph at 2000 RPMs
ive driven one, and uhh 0-50 in first is F'n insane!

Driving so fast I feel like my stomach is gonna fly out the window and stopping every few minutes to let my buddy in my WRX catch up was fun too.
Z06's are pretty wicked, truly the most fun car I have spent time with. Love the way they fire up on a cold morning. RAAAHR glub glub glub.
