I've heard a few people over the last few years speak of Corvettes as "old mans cars". About 9 /10 times, when ever I see someone driving a Corvette (newer or older) , its a early 50's -70 yr old fella (no ladies).
The LT5 , '93-'95 , I thought I heard good things about / fast. Regardless, V8 , tires/brakes , it's going to cost more to maintain that rig, then just about any 4cyl car, period.
Go test drive an 86. If I was in the market now, I'd go for a nice preowned '17- '18 BRZ, manual , with PP if possible (or limited 2nd choice)… in the color preferred (for me, Red or Assfault gray). Or, get as good of a deal on a new rig, exactly what you want , but used with 10-15k miles should be $5-7k less money.

So you're basing your opinion of corvettes on what you "thought" you had heard about a very specific 4th gen model (zr-1) and about seeing some people driving their cars on the street. GTFOH.
