Even a "low-tech" car is still very complicated to build. Someone who is good enough to make a very good old style car (like Honda or Toyota), isn't financially incentivized to do so anymore. Such a car would not have any features to justify its brand new price over a used one. And the cost to reserve an entire factory line for this model is just too expensive and probably sale won't recover the cost of doing so.
