The answer is yes.  You can get a Hellcat swap at the junkyard any day of the week in some locations.

TLDR

ICE cars? Yes. Hybrid/ev/hydrogen? no. Look at the 74 N.

Just because you can't afford a late model 911, Lotus, Corvette, etc, doesn't mean they're not gorgeous or worth paying attention to. 

I loved the look of my ol' 2017 Mustang GT, and every single time I drive my 911 (991 PDK) it put's a smile on my face.  And I turn around when walking away, to catch a glance at it's sublime looks...

I also like driving my '72 Mercedes SL, MG TD & Triumph GT6, but none of those cars are remotely as nice to drive as the 911.

And people finally stopped talking about the 60's.  For a long time it didn't matter how fast a new car was, there was always some dude saying "...yeah but a Boss 426 Magnum back when I got home from 'Nam...".   Where those people finally convinced of modern car superiority or did they just all finally die?

Buy a 911 GT3.

 Buy tires.

Its simply sublime as a STOCK car.  Having done a few laps in a small track outside Las Vegas Motor Speedway, I came away in disbelief.  The level of effortless pinpoint performance is stunning.  In a drive at another track a Lamborghini was a pig and a Ferrari 430 was oh so sweet and also accurate. But the 911 GT3 was clearly at another level.   Golden Age of Performance Cars? Absolutely!
