It depends on what the nature of the airflow around a specific car looks like. Bugs have a harder time than air making a "hard corner" but the mass of air stuck at a hard corner can cause other air to go around in a more graceful way and carry the bugs with them.
Coefficient of drag hasn't improved much since the 90s and most of those improvements have been with regard to the vacuum behind the car so aerodynamics is probably only a contributing factor either way.
