Even a stock C5 Z would beat most of those cars with basic upgrades (not swapping/adding a turbo or supercharger).
A C6 Z will beat almost any of the cars you listed on any type of pump gas tune (yes, there are exceptions...but for cars you are actually going to run into, most won't hang with a C6 Z without a race gas build).
Charles (ct9gsr or whatever his screen name is) had a fully built Evo...with a GT35 turbo I believe. I can't remember what turbo he was using that night, but it was before he put the bigger one on. Anyway, he raced me on a pump gas tune at 28psi and we were pretty much dead even when I was stock.
And keep in mind...when I say "beat," I'm talking about a very quick race in straight line acceleration. In stock form, a Z06 (especially a C6) will annihilate all of these cars in braking, traction, skid pad, slalom, aerodynamics, top speed, high speed stability, and possibly even durability.
Sure, you can build any car to do whatever you want it to do with the right amount of money and time. But in stock form, a Corvette is pretty damn good in all categories. When it comes to the Z06, they're quite monsterous from the factory. There's a reason that the Z06 has been voted the best value sports car in the world for several years.
