Writer/Director/Producer John Hughes had his finger on the pulse of the 1980s. He understood what the decade was about, specifically in America but with some international truths. His use of popular music in films was revolutionary (Pretty in Pink and Some Kind of Wonderful soundtracks still classics!). And you loved his characters, good and bad, busted stereotype after cliched antagonist.

16 Candles, Pretty in Pink, Some Kind of Wonderful, Weird Science and his true masterpieces - Breakfast Club and Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Even Planes, Trains & Automobiles and (as writer) National Lampoon's European Vacation and Christmas Vacation had redeeming qualities and laughs a plenty. And while we might look back and cringe now, the original Home Alone was unique and funny.

So sad that, in the 1990s, he descended into writing 3 sequels to Home Alone and films like Maid in Manhattan. Even sadder that no one has filled that void in the past 20 years!
 
Cool 8)

But it cost's almost a fifth of what the 'car' is worth today. Thats right, the Ferrari 250 GT California that he took for the day, then consequently smashed up, is worth a staggering $11,000,000 8O well thats what the last one did at auction. The most expensive car in the world. 8)

Chris Evans bought it 8)

that´s why most of the newer james bond movies never ever can compete

WANT TO BUY THAT CAR from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off?

"Ferris Bueller" Ferrari Set for Auction
Ferrari 250GT Spyder California from the Movie Is Actually a Replica;
Expected to Fetch $45,000 or More in April 19 Auction


You have a chance to own an iconic piece of Chicago film history,
if you have at least $45,000 to spare.

Ferris Bueller's Ferrari is going up for auction in London on April 19,
reports CBS station WBBM in Chicago.

Bonhams Collectors' Motor Cars and Automobilia Auction estimates
that it will go for £30,000-40,000, or roughly $45,000-67,000.

The car works and is ready to drive.
But there is one catch - it's not a real Ferrari.

The car is actually a replica of the Ferrari 250GT Spyder California
that was specially created for the1986 movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off."

"Only around one hundred genuine 250GT Spyder Californias were created
by Ferrari between 1958 and 1963," Bonhams says.
"Existing examples are very rare and expensive so Paramount chose to commission
and build a replica for filming purposes."

In the movie, Ferris Bueller (Matthew Broderick) persuades his friend
Cameron (Alan Ruck) to let them use his father's restored 1961 Ferrari to drive
into Chicago from the suburbs.
They leave the car with two parking attendants, who take it on a joyride
while they're gone.

On their way home, upon noticing that hundreds of miles have been added
to the odometer, Bueller tries to run the car in reverse in hopes that the odometer
will begin taking miles off.
The plan fails, and the car later crashes through a glass wall and ends up in a ravine.

But not to worry.
The auctioneer wants everyone to know that the Ferrari replica up for sale
is not the one that was wrecked and reduced to a husk, MovieLine.com reported.

The auction is scheduled for 11 a.m. GMT (6 a.m. ET) April 19
at the Royal Air Force Museum in London.

I must admit I thought it odd they'd use an original as they are so rare. Thank god they didnt. And if you look at the pictuur of the one Chris evans bought there are quite a few differences.
 
I stumbled across an article yesterday in which Matthew Broderick says the replica car was poor. Apparently wouldn't start half the time. It was based on an MG.
