10 Iconic Movie Cars It Would Suck To Actually Own

7. Ferrari 250GT Spyder California- Ferris Bueller's Day Off

At first glance, you probably think this inclusion is an abomination, because this is actually a car that anyone would die to own. Only around a hundred were ever made, and it is arguably one of the most beautiful and unique cars ever made - which is the single biggest problem with it. For the purpose of this piece I actually tried to get an insurance quote for one, every single insurance company not only said no, they also wanted to call me to tell me no, with Earth-shattering finality. The point is, you'd not dare even fart near it for fear of breaking it or tarnishing it. The effortless beauty it possesses will only serve to keep you awake all night every night just looking at it. Your family will never look at you in the eye again, simply because you'll forget they even exist. You'd need a few million notes in your pocket to purchase an old Russian nuclear bunker just to park it in. And driving it? Never in a million years would you take that out into a world where coffin dodgers driving Hyundai's or hormone charged teenagers in a Vauxhall Corsa with an oil drum planted on its arse exist. A replica from the movie sold not too long ago for $79,000 - you could buy the Ireland for that - and a real California will set you back a couple of million.
