1960 FERRARI 250 GT CALIFORNIA SPYDER

UNLESS YOU STILL LOOK FORWARD TO NAPTIME AND RECESS, CHANCES ARE YOU'VE SEEN THE 1986 CLASSIC MOVIE
"FERRIS BUELLERS DAY OFF". THE CENTER OF THAT FLICK FEATURED A REPLICA OF THE 1961 FERRARI 250 GT CALIFORNIA SPYDER. THESE COMPLETELY HAND-BUILT CARS, THEN ORIGINALLY DESIGNED AND MANUFACTURED BY MODENA
DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF EL CAJON, CALIFORNIA , TOOK APPROXIMATELY 6 MONTHS EACH TO BUILD.

ALTHOUGH NO TWO OF THE ORIGINAL 100 "CALIFORNIA" FERRARI'S PRODUCED IN THE EARLY 1960s WERE ALIKE, DUE
TO THE MANY SMALL VARIATIONS, FERRARI STILL ATTEMPTED TO SUE THE ORIGINAL BLUEPRINTER OF THE REPLICA
BECAUSE IT WAS SO CLOSE TO THE ORIGINALS. HOWEVER, THE FIRST GENERATION REPLICA, INITIALLY KNOWN
AS THE "MODENA SPYDER", CARRIED NO FERRARI LOGO'S BUT BECAME AN IMMEDIATE HIT WITH ENTHUSIASTS.

WHILE YOU CAN DRIVE AROUND TOWN OR DIVE BOMB THROUGH YOUR FAVORITE TURNS IN A FACTORY ORIGINAL
FERRARI 250 GT, FOR MOST ENTHUSIASTS, IT'S NOT AS SIMPLE AS THAT. WITH AN HONEST-TO-MARANELLO SPYDER COMMANDING UPWARDS OF SEVEN FIGURES, BENDING UP GENUINE ALUMINUM COACHWORK WOULD CERTAINLY
BE A BIG BAD. THAT IS WHY A REPLICA OF THIS CALIBER MAKES A LOT OF SENSE AND IS A HASSLE-FREE PROPOSITION.

WHILE IT IS A REPRODUCTION, THREE FERRARI OWNERS HAVE DRIVEN THIS CAR WITHOUT

FERRARI IN THE LATE 50's AND EARLY 60's.

IF YOU ARE IN THE MARKET, OR EVEN IF YOU'RE NOT, DON'T PASS UP THIS OPPORTUNITY TO
ACQUIRE A COLLECTIBLE CAR THAT YOU CAN ENJOY, BOTH NOW AND WHEN YOU
GET A SUBSTANTIAL RETURN ON YOUR INVESTMENT. CLASSIC CARS YIELD AN 8 POINT ROI.
HOWEVER, FERRARI's OF THIS CALIBER EXCEED THAT NUMBER ANNUALLY.
THE NICE THING ABOUT OLD CARS IS ...THEY ALWAYS GET OLDER.
