Designed
for export to America, the 1957 250 GT California Spyder
was Scaglietti's interpretation of an open-top 250 GT.
Aluminum was used in the hood, doors, and trunk lid, with
steel specified elsewhere for most models, though a few
aluminum-bodied racing versions were also built. The engine
was the same as in the 250 Tour de France racing car with
up to 240 hp (179 kW). All used the long 2600 mm (102.4
in) chassis. About 45 were made before it was replaced
by the SWB version in 1960, a fact mentioned by Cameron
Frye in the movie "Ferris Bueller's Day off."
This film made that car famous. Today the car is worth
in the neighborhood of 2-4 million dollars, a recent car
selling for 1.2 million dollars at an RM Auction in Florida.
