I have friends with corvettes and the camaro has no problem going on spirited drives with the vettes in the mountains and canyons. Even when loaded with 4 people it rides great, especially with the MRC. My old miata was faster on super tight mountain roads, but it had 550 lb springs, big sway bars and super sticky tires, But it was pretty much miserable to drive everywhere except on a windy mountain road.

Totally agree. I've had 4 vettes and a Miata. The Miata was really fun about 1pct of the time and sucked most of the rest of the time. I was too tall for that car anyway - seat didn't go back far enough so legs were cramped and my head sat above the wind line with the top down. It was my first convertible and almost turned me off to the idea but tried a 3 series which was great and that led to the SS.
Camaro is a nice all a rounder - great to drive anywhere any time
Much like my M5. And I do like the backseat which we do use occasionally. The primary use case is road trip to visit one of our girls with my wife and then we can drive that car around with 3 of us as needed when we get there. Can't do that in a vette !!
