Ok its not a real Ferrari but still a classic piece of motoring history

[ZOLLAR]

Probably the only "replica" i would ever buy (if i could afford it )
O/T slightly, Didnt the company that build it for paramount go into bankruptcy as Ferrari sued them for making the replica or something along those line's?.

Edit for shocking spelling errors!.

Awesome!

I can see that going for a lot more than the £30-40k estimate!

[GFWilliams]

What's it based on?

[ZOLLAR]

An MG wasn't it? cant remember the Model MG though sorry.

Didn't you see what happened to it at the end of the film?

apparently an MGB with a 5 litre mustang engine

Shame the replica company, Modena got sued by Ferrari. I can think of worse looking kits and worse ways to use an old MGB.

Did the 1986 V8 Mustang actually put out any more power than the MGB?

Ooh. I was planning on being at that auction anyway - Now I definately have to be there.

I would prefer the Alfetta from ferris buellers day off- see Alfette thread to see what one looks like!

On the plus side, the car has aged better than Matthew Broderick:
