Yes, this is true. But spending somewhat more money to swap the car you own is not so totally foolish it should be ridiculed by those who would not do it, or wish they hadn't. Deciding that you want to take a car you like and make it faster is not equivalent, in my opinion, to simply wishing you had a faster car. "I want a 12 second car" is not the same goal as "I want to take on the project of swapping a totally different drivetrain into my car to make it faster" or "I want to do a swap because I will get satisfaction out of doing the work." My argument is not that it doesn't matter how much you spend to achieve a certain set of criteria with your car, but that diferent sets of criteria can justify different levels of spending.
