Movie Cars: Ferris Bueller's Day Off

 

In 1986, a ton of classic films came out, but one of my favorites is Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. Of course since this blog is about movie cars we are going to be talking about the very sad moment when this car above was destroyed. Well, that actually never happened because the cars used in the film were replicas! Three of these replica Ferrari GTs were used in the movie and only one of them got wrecked. They actually used a car called a GT Spyder California.

The scene where the Ferrari plummets down to the ground was actually just a fiberglass shell that was made specially for that part. Later, this shell was restored and sold in auction for a pretty penny. The real Ferrari GT is an extremely rare car so it is good to hear that one wasn’t actually used.

We here at Jerry Noonan’s Auto Center hope you enjoyed another segment from Movie Cars! Hope you can sleep at night now knowing that no super rare car was destroyed in this movie.  Thanks for reading along!!
