Ferris Bueller Ferrari Sells Above Estimate

The replica 1961 Ferrari 250GT California Spyder that was created for the movie 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off' sold at auction this past Monday for much more than was expected -- the final bid was more than twice the pre-sale estimates. The sale took place at Bonhams in London and top bidding was competitive despite volcano-related travel restrictions that limited many buyers to participate by phone. It seems not even Ferris himself could dampen interest as the $45,000 - 65,000 initial estimate was blown out of the water by a whopping $122,000 closing bid.
