Serious as opposed to highly exaggerated body lines and the view that Corvette had almost become a "caricature of itself"...and that the owner was a beer belly who wore an open shirt with gold chains.
As someone from the same generation, I agree 100%. The C4 design has aged well.

When I decided to add a Corvette to my collection, I honestly expected to buy a C5 ZO6 or a C3 resto-mod. I only looked at a C4 Z because it was at a local classic car dealer, and I was in the area.

I was quite surprised at how well the design had aged, having not seen one in quite some time. So much so, that I knew I had to get a C4 Z (but certainly not the one in the dealer, as it was a mess!).
