    You're quite right---once you get frisky in the Vette, it will push like crazy on you. Not a very comfortable feeling. But to be fair, this is a problem with most cars that are a) very big and b) very powerful. You get to speed so alarmingly fast, that you end up braking hard into every turn (because you got there so damn quick!). And I wouldn't call the C5 an easy car to balance. So you jump out of the C5 into an M3 or a Lotus Elise and you say "OHHHHH, this is how it's supposed to handle..."
