There are some wires and hoses visible which is to be expected, but they are neatly organized and look great..... that is the real intake manifold on there. The valve covers pop out at you. The only covers are the carbon fiber caps at the front and back of the engine.

Then go buy a B7 RS4......for 60k. Christ people. It's a 35k car. Lets look into the engine bay of a comparable Audi.
The Audi A3, pretty much full loaded, costs 35k. Which is about what an RS/2SS Camaro costs. And this is what it looks like under the hood.
Oh look, a big grey plastic engine cover.
But wait, that's not an A4. Which is what you'd like us to compare too. So let's see.....a comparable A4 would be a base model 2.0T. That's about 35k. Let's see what you get under the hood....
ZOMG.....do you actually.....get what you pay for?
