The average young person, or even person in general, has never typically been overly interested in cars which is a reason why "vanilla" cars have commonly been top sellers. Other than due to the economic/recession factors which hit younger people harder, I don't think there is sufficient evidence that today's youth is notably more or less enthused about cars. Higher and higher percentages of young people were/are living at home with their parents but I would not consider that less enthusiasm with getting out on their own and having their own place.
Cars today are as "special" to enthusiasts as cars were "special" to enthusiast in years and decades past. Like many things, aspects change, styles change, features change, things evolve, etc. but that doesn't necessarily make cars any more or less special today than past cars were in their given eras.
Being interested in social media, smart phones, etc. does not mean someone can't also be very interested in cars. Young people have always had many other interests besides or in addition to cars including telephones, portable music devices, video games, reading, movies/videos, and the list goes on.
