But perhaps the most interesting feature of this particular Alfetta is its connection to the classic 1980s film “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.” In the movie, Ferris and his friends take a joyride in his friend Cameron’s father’s prized 1961 Ferrari 250 GT California Spyder. However, in real life, the car used in the film was actually a replica based on an Alfa Romeo chassis and drivetrain, with a fiberglass body designed to look like a Ferrari. While this Alfetta is not the exact car used in the film, it is still a piece of automotive history that any fan of the movie is sure to appreciate.
