Oh Yeah!!!! Born elegant and made famous by the hit movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off", this 1961 Modena Ferrari 250
GT California Spyder is absolutely stunning!
This beautiful Modena Design Ferrari is 1 of only 32 re-released 1961 Ferrari 250 GT California Spyders made and
are highly sought after by Ferrari collectors and auto enthusiasts around the world.
THIS IS NOT A KIT CAR! This stunning classic was hand built by Modena Design & Development in the El Cajon, CA
facility. In the early 1980s California entrepreneurs Neil Glassmoyer and Mark Goyett founded Modena Design and
Development in El Cajon to manufacture the Modena Spyder California, a Ferrari 250 GT Spyder-based sports car that
far exceeded the quality and finish of other independent offerings of the time to be used in the 1980's hit movie
"Ferris Bueller's Day Off".
The Modena Design Ferrari 250 GT California Spyder is so exact to the original, Ferrari sued Modena Design and won
a cease and desist order. Therefore, only 32 of these rare beauties were produced making them very rare and highly
collectible.
Unless you have 15 Million Dollars for the real thing, there are no others which compare to the Modena Ferrari 250
GT California Spyder. Modena Design won the hand crafted automobile award the year their spyders were produced!
Further, with the limited production due to the cease and desist order, the values of the Modena Ferrari 250 GT
California Spyders have been rising and will continue to rise. With only 32 made, the Modena Ferrari is highly
sought after, highly collectible and will continue to be a great investment!
This Ferrari Modena 250 GT Californa Spyder comes with the original sales brochure and build sheets (see photos)!
Do not get taken for a fake!!! This is a true Modena Design Ferrari 250 GT California Spyder!

Ferrari developing V-twin motorcycle engine?
Sat, 04 Oct 2014When we read reports that Ferrari had applied for a patent on a V-twin engine design, our first thought was to check the date: this says the first of October, right... not April? And so here we are, entertaining the notion that Ferrari could be developing a motorcycle engine.
The report comes from Autocar, which claims to have dug up the application to patent the design for an "internal combustion engine having two cylinders, which are arranged in a 'V' configuration." In other words, a motorcycle engine. The application reportedly goes on to describe a balancing shafts to reduce vibration. Our own research did not lead us to find the application in question, so we'll have to take it with a grain of salt for the moment. But supposing it's all on the up and up, and that Ferrari was actually developing a motorcycle engine. Would that be so out of the ordinary?
Well, yes and no. Parent company Fiat, which is taking increased direct control of Ferrari, is undoubtedly looking at rival Volkswagen and its recent acquisition of Ducati (putting it in close proximity to Lamborghini) and would be keen to get in on that action. However tenuous the relationship, Lotus has also recently authorized a motorcycle bearing its name. And of course automakers like BMW and Honda, with which Ferrari has competed on and off the race track, also make motorcycles.
Ferrari pays tribute to Niki Lauda with one-off 458
Mon, 25 Nov 2013Though Niki Lauda may today be chairman of the Mercedes F1 team, anyone who's seen Rush will know that he's inexorably tied to Ferrari. And it's that bond that Ferrari has celebrated with this special-edition 458 Italia.
Commissioned by an evidently dedicated fan through Maranello's Tailor Made program, this one-off 458 features a red paintjob with white roof and gold wheels. It's a livery that apes the cars Lauda drove for the Scuderia in the mid-70s, and carries through with tricolore racing stripes over the roof and throughout the red-stitched black leather interior.
Not the most subtle treatment we've seen, but then the Italia is hardly a subtle car to begin with. Lets just hope this particular example manages to steer clear of going up in flames as have so many 458s - and one notable 312 T2. Feel free to read more in the press release below.
Best speculative Ferrari Enzo successor rendering yet
Sat, 16 Feb 2013While so many supposed Ferrari fanatics are just sitting on their collective hands and waiting for the Italian supercar maker to finally reveal its F150 (or whatever it'll be called) Enzo follow-up, designer Josiah LaColla has gotten busy with his Wacom tablet and set to work. The results, though quite possibly no closer to the actual F150 as any of the other renderings we've seen thus far, are lovely to behold.
Well, actually, "lovely" probably isn't the perfect descriptor - anything less than a little bit brutal wouldn't be a proper successor to the Enzo, nor would it fit the parameters laid out by the test mules we've seen so far. Accurate within the best of LaColla's ability to guess and imagine is probably a better way of looking at these designs, which show a car that has enough venting to keep the bowls of Hell cool (should Hell ever hit the autostrada at 150+ miles per hour).
We've recapitulated the designer's own words in press release form, below, so as to give you a good idea of his intentions with the design. Read, view and tell us what you think the renderings, in comments.
