Not to rain on your parade...but that's because those people "who get paid millions" have to adhere to standards, laws, and etc. Go check out a European car, with a European license plate...can you see the issue?

Then notice how the C5 to C6 changes included a "fixed" license plate location. Also take a peek at the license plate area of any car destined for Europe and those that never leave our shores. Having room for their long plates makes the car more Europe-friendly. It's the same here: Camaro will be exported to Europe, and Australia among other places...

The decision of license reverse-light placement was a tough one, not quite as simple as you might think...
