Except that people do make that comparison because that is what is available to compare on the streets. And the Camaro SS 1LE/Mustang GT Performance Pack are actually fairly good handlers. They are still bloated.
The Porsche Cayman has upped the anti in hp over the last several years. The new Cayman GT4 will be pushing 380 hp.
All that said, I don't care. I love the Z experience, I love the total cost of ownership, and I love the fact that I can easily do work on it.
