You realize handling is more than just the fact that it goes around corners right? Stock the Stock 2010 Camaro SS handles like my Jeep Liberty, in short it's like a boat, it has great grip but it has an insane amount of body roll, my stock 2003 350Z has less body roll and handles circles around my Camaro. Of course it helps that the 350Z weighs much less than the Camaro but even my Shelby feels as nimble and planted as the 350Z. My GT500 handles better than my Camaro not only because it quite literally does, but because the steering feel, grip, and body roll is a significant improvement over the SS. It also helps that the Shelby doesn't let me slide around in my seat if I take a sharp turn.
Everything I've read about the 1LE has done nothing but praise it over the stock SS. The Stock 2010/11 SS is a pig in the Handling Department, Hench why Chevy got rid of that crap steering wheel (it doesn't work in a car that is meant to handle), and updated the 2012 SS's Suspension Parts.
