I saw the "Hemi" (actually a 318) Challenger and the "Yenko" Camaro when I was travelling the 'States a number of years ago.
Apart from the perceived provenance of being in the Films, you would not give the actual car a second glance....

I know what you mean, but people probably felt the same after every famous car film, including Bullitt, Vanishing Point and Gone in 60 seconds (1974). Yes the Fast & Furious films are a bit tacky but the franchise has grossed over $5 billion and the films are popular, and time has a funny way of making people feel sentimental and eventually the featured car's values going up.

All the cars and props from Fast & Furious Live were at auction in the UK last month, not sure what sold. There was even the inflatable flying Challenger.

If I fit a dummy blower to my 318, will it get the wheels up just like the movie car?
