The 250 GT California that appeared in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off is considered by many to be one of the film world’s most iconic cars and now an unknown buyer has bid it home for the considerable sum of three million kroner. A pretty penny to pay considering there was no engine included for the cart, it’s not even a real Ferrari but a replica that was constructed out of fiberglass specifically for the movie. On the auction page you can read the following information.
“It consists of a fiberglass body bolted to a rolling chassis with cosmetically finished interior with tan vinyl seats, tan carpeting, matte black fiberglass dashboard with instrumentation and wood-trimmed steering wheel replete with replica “prancing horse” logo at center,”
“Tires are mounted on chrome wire wheels. There is no engine or drivetrain present. Being a prop, the hood has no hinges and rests in place. Both door latches are present but need adjustment. The trunk lid lacks a latch. The front right headlight lens is present, but is cracked and remains loose; the rear passenger side taillight lens is missing. Chrome trim and side mirror exhibit pitting and oxidation.”
Would you have liked to have the Ferris-Ferrari standing at home in the living room?
