Buy the Ferrari Spyder California from Ferris Beuller’s Day Off

This car is “so choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up”

Ferris Beuller gets a chubby inspecting Cameron’s dad’s prized possession in Ferris Beuller’s Day Off, and now you can have that car. The very one from the movie. Well, one of them.

MSN’s Passing Lane reports:

British auction house Bonhams has one of the surviving movie cars and is putting it on the block during its Motor Cars and Automobilia auction on April 19 at the RAF Museum in Hendon, England. It estimates that the car should fetch somewhere between £30,000-£40,000, and is ready to drive. That’s ridiculously low money for any 250 GT, but there’s a reason…

This car is actually a reproduction, built by the studio during filming to avoid having to destroy one of the 100 original 250 GT Spyder California models that Ferrari built between ’58 and ’63. It’s based on an MG platform and has a fibreglass body, hence the low-ball value. But surely $50,000 for something that looks so pretty can’t be a bad investment, can it?

Clearly this is not the specific reproduction that they tossed out the window, but this is one of the ones that were driven around in the movie.

You could sit where Ferris sat, and to me that has more value than this ultra rare 1961 Ferrari Spyder California.

If you have the means…
