For what a Bently or a Ferrari cost, I would want to see breasts under the hood.

Its kinda ricer I think. Ford could make the engine bay nicer looking but seriously who cares what the engine bay looks like?

I rather go fast than have my engine bay looking good

I guess ford could just throw plastic over every part of the engine except the intake so it looks like everyone elses.

I know that the Ferrari, etc are very expensive. But the Camaro engine bay looks very clean. Nothing special but clean. I just think Ford engine bays always look like a bunch of spagetti on them with all of the hoses, wires, etc. Ford does not make a nice engine bay in my opnion. Of course driving it is what really matters. It is pretty hard to clean up a Ford engine bay because of the way Ford does their wiring, hoses, etc IMO.

Yup. Pull the cover off and they wont look so nice. But If I had that ZR1, I wouldn't care what the motor looked like. That car is bad ***!!
