Yeah, I don't think anyone is going to argue that the corvette isn't a tougher and more lively car to handle than say a porsche 911 or a jaguar...but that seems to be what defines a corvette...it's raw, powerful, tail-happy and still capable-handling all for a price that no one else can offer.
Yes you can get better handling and turning with a porsche or high-end euro car, but you are also paying easily twice as much if not more.
Also, the new C7 has been upgraded with lot more tech to promote better handling and balance over the previous generations...so posting C6 crash vids is pointless..we are talking about a different car here.
