Chevy sweats the details...

...on the Chevy Camaro Z/28, that they even used thinner rear window glass, lighter rear seats, and deleted the AC. In wind tunnel testing they found out that their bowtie logo in the front grill deflected three cubic meters of air each minute from the radiator reducing optimal engine cooling. So the engineering solution was to 'hollow out' the famous bowtie and created the 'Flowtie'. Clever marketing and made you look!
