It's all margin and manfacturers optimise far smaller costs than that; when you're a VW or Toyota making 10MM cars a year it all adds up.

So, you're telling me, the manufacturers would've switched to this new amazing way of doing networking in the car, but it would've cost them an extra dollar and added a few hundred grams to the weight of the car, so they just had to wait for this standard to come along?

10/100BASE-T1 and its relatives are a long time coming. Car manufacturers are actively making these standards, they aren't "waiting for it to come around".
