Ferrari from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off to be Auctioned

29Apr

Ferrari 250GT Spyder California

The Ferrari 250GT Spyder California replica commissioned and built for the 1986 Paramount motion picture Ferris Bueller’s Day Off is being auctioned by Bonhams, a privately owned British auction house and one of the world’s oldest and largest auctioneers of fine art and antiques.

This convincing replica of the Ferrari 250GT Spyder California was commissioned and built for the 1986 Paramount Productions motion picture Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, starring Matthew Broderick as the eponymous high-school slacker. When Ferris decides to cut school one day, his friends go with him; the father of one of them owns a Spyder California. You know the rest… Only 100-or-so Spyder Californias were made between 1958 and 1963. Genuine examples are rare, jealously guarded and worth a veritable king’s ransom, so it is perhaps understandable why Paramount chose to use a replica a rather than the real thing.
