Corvette C5 as a first sports car?
I'm very good at manual, both from driving manual daily for 3 years, hooning in shitboxes, and various simulators, so that isn't an issue. I can find C5s for about $8k for decent versions with 120k miles. How reliable are they past 100k miles? I'd be using it as a daily driver and sometimes a car to fuck around in on backroads.
Also, opinion on the C5? Underpriced gem or heap of shit?

Forgot to mention that I know how to work on cars.

Save up for one with less miles or get a mint C4

I honestly don't like C4s. I prefer C5s because of how they look, but also because of how common parts are. I don't know if this is the same case with the C4, but I imagine it isn't.

I wouldn't buy a used corvette with over 50k miles

c4 parts are pretty common. i had a 93 with an lt1 and it wasn't hard. the interior on c4s is fucking horrible though, very cheap
