Here in Central TX we don't get rain often, but when we do it's often biblical. The biggest problem (other than extremely deep puddles) is the oil and dust buildup gets slick at the first moisture.
But, my 4x4 truck with huge ground clearance is much more tail happy than my C6.

Believe it or not but I live in an area that gets more rain than Seattle, WA.
We get lake effect rainstorms that continually bombard us during the spring,
summer and fall months from Lake Erie.
I have an 08 C6 coupe which is my daily driver.
It's driven in the rain all the time.
No problems with hydroplaning IF you use common sense behind the wheel.
Slow down during rainstorms and you'll have no problems.
