Ford V Ferrari carsAs you think, these vehicles reach millions of euros in auctions. Luckily, there are incredible recreations of these vehicles. In fact the cars you've seen on the big screen are replicas manufactured by RCR and the South African company High-Tech (Superformance in USA) 
Ferrari 275 replica made for the movie Ford V Ferrari by RCR
Talking about a replica of a classic car has nothing to do with talking about a cheap chinese replica of a mobile phone or a bag. The quality of the classic car replicas is gorgeous. Many of these replicas are approved by the FIA to run as originals in competition, and they do!
Many of these recreations use original molds, plans or parts. Sometimes, they even hire former engineers who worked on the original model! As is logical to think, all this increases the price; but if you want a reliability replica, you will have it. The Ford GT40 that finished third in 24h Le Mans '66 was auctioned at € 8,840,000 in August 2018. So spending € 150,000 on a FIA approved replica is not a bad deal. For the rest of GT40s, it is usual to see it auctioned between $ 2.5M - $ 3.5M Only one Ferrari P4 (#0856) remains in original conditions, the other two Ferraris that were manufactured were converted to participate in the American Can-Am. Therefore, it is logical to think that there are high quality recreations in the market.
