So that means I want my Z28 as described above for somewhere in the mid 30K's.

DNA is based on a personal coupe. What the 4th gen did was become a 4 seater Corvette.
The 5th gen splits somewhere in the middle, something a bit more upright then a 4th gen. You dont fall into it, its hood, while long, is not as obtrusive. The rake on the windshield is no where near as bad on the 4th gen.
4th gen is a great performance package, but outside of that it offers nothing. First, second, third and now 5th fit the DNA. 4th gen went way too far with performance.
