Recently Honored:
The Modena Cal Spyder Replica from Ferris Bueller's Day Off was recently honored in the national mall in Washington DC by the Historical Vehicle Association (HVA) during the fourth annual "Cars at the Capital" exhibit.  Very well deserved recognition.  Recognition that will surely elevate the collectability of these great and beautiful cars.  Visit the mecum website to take a look at the Ferris car.
Update:
The actual Ferris Bueller Modena sold in Monterey in August 2018 for a whopping 7,000.  Perhaps, these cars are on the rise.  This is your chance to own a Modena of your own.  Clearly, the previous owner of this car was very detail oriented.  He kept incredible notes that will greatly benefit the next owner.  There is a tremendous amount of documentation that will go with this car.  Rarely do these replicas come with this level of documentation.  This car is in very nice vintage condition but please note that it was completed in 1987.  Car has some patina and minor flaws (not a show car) but it still gets tons of attention whenever the owner has it out.
