If you’re inspired to put a new-age vintage car in your garage, there are plenty of options—likely far more than you know. Here are nine more new cars that offer an old-school driving experience.

Pur Sang’s Ultimate Continuation Type 35B

Base Price : $200,000

“There are no real prewar Bugattis,” says John Both well, commercial director of Pur Sang Automotive of Argentina. “Everything has been rebodied, been through multiple replacement motors, and has had restorations that replace every nut and bolt. Nothing is original.”

We’ll leave it to Both well and others to argue ab out what’s real or not about prewar Bugattis, but one thing’s for sure: The privileged few who spend millions on them aren’t exactly driving them hard—or driving them at all, for that matter. That’s where the Pur Sang Type 35B comes in.

It’s a car that looks and feels as if it just rolled off the Molsheim, France, factory floor under the direction of Ettore Bugatti himself. And with a price tag that’s just a fraction of those “originals,” it’s a car you won’t actually be afraid to drive.

Its overall aesthetic is mesmerizing. Every single part of this aluminum bathtub on wheels is built or forged on site at Pur Sang’s facilities in Argentina. The company takes great pains to ensure the car’s design and production methods mimic those of the originals built in 1927.
