If you’re a Gen-Xer like me then Ferris Bueller’s Day Off will be right up there with one of your favourite films of all time. Just one of the things that made the movie great was the Ferrari 250GT Spyder California belonging to Cameron’s dad.
The good news for cashed up Gen-Xers is that they now have an opportunity to buy the car from the movie. And it’s actually likely to be more affordable than you think. The rarity and value of genuine 250GTs is such that the film’s producers commissioned two replicas to be made, using an MG chassis. Of course, one of the cars got destroyed in the making of the film, but the unique surviving piece of movie history could be yours.
UK auction house Bonhams will offer up the car on 19 April. They expect the replica to fetch between £30-40K (AU$50-66K). I have to admit, this would be one very cool piece of memorabilia to own. A reminder of the car in action can be seen after the jump, thanks to the glory of YouTube.

You just pick that clip cause of the Rabbit 😉 nice work
Cool movie, cool car. It’s the perfect car to buy if you have a display area in your house!
From memory the house used in the movie sold a few months back.
Looks like the house has only just sold…
