A Major Goal and achievement are the prices.

Slapping a plastic cover is EZ$$ and functional fix. It does not hurt anything. Removed the engine is nice and tight. Hoses have covers. Wires have proper looms. Once you have wrenched on lot of GM V8's you see beauty not a mess.

Chevrolet makes working mans car. Audi is for people that file there nails ...

Only Audi I like are the ones warping past me in my rear view mirror.
It costs absolutely no money whatsoever to route hoses and wires properly. I never said GM had to powdercoat every intake manifold and paint every valve cover, I was just using the S4 as more of a reference for a clean and tidy engine bay. Just a little extra effort on the part of the engineers to design the routing right and the assemblers to put it together right.

As far as Chevy being a working mans car, I'd rather their image be upscaled a bit. It needs it. The Camaro is the perfect car to do it.
