Sure it's not catering to the average Joe, neither are hot-rods for example. On a sidenote, in countries such as mine where even beaten old cars might retain a resale value not so negligible, engine swaps are not so uncommon at all. It's not unusual to see imports from the '90s, often from brands that are not available here anymore, repowered with Volkswagen or Chevrolet engines.
