I find the handling in the ZLE to be more precise on the street as well (especially winding roads, and I have some nice back roads with tight turns and roundabouts by me), and you're exactly right on the tires, and the bouncing (on the bright side, it keeps you away from trying to mess with your phone while driving, cuz it aint happening until a stop light or sign lol). The guy in the video is right that it follows every little line in the road as well, which is the "you and the road" feeling I was talking about.

I feel my 5th GEN SS 1LE was stiffer than the ZL1 in Track Mode. Probably the mag ride doing its thing. That said, I did like the sharpness of the 5th GEN SS 1LE suspension even though anytime I hit a decent bump I thought I was going to break something in the car.
Those expansion cracks on the highways make for some interesting sound. The ZL1 strikes a pretty good balance. It is ideal for the street, in fact I think it may be even better with a set of the Michelin PS4S tires.
