The Cars of Ferris Bueller’s Day Off
In the 1980s, there were very few movies that were better than the ones by John Hughes and many people believe that the best one was Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. If you haven’t seen it, the gem starred Matthew Broderick as the title character who just wants to enjoy a sunny day away from school. Bueller knows that he needs his friends to really enjoy the day, so he makes arrangements with Cameron Frye, played by Alan Ruck, and Sloane Peterson, played by Mia Sara. The trio ends up together and has the best day ever, while his archnemesis, Principal Ed Rooney (Jeffrey Jones) works hard to prove that Bueller is skipping class. The antics of the kids, the principal, and Bueller’s sister, played by Jennifer Grey, are filled with many memorable automotive moments.

First introduced in 1971, the Alfa Romeo 2000 GTV was an exciting 2-door coupe which had a great European quality that set it apart from other sports cars of its day. This was a model which teenagers and car enthusiasts alike could appreciate, and indeed, many still do. To make this model stand out from other Alfa Romeo models, the front grille added an exciting element to the car. Horizontal chrome bars gleamed on the grille, and the Alfa heart outline was displayed prominently in the middle. This grille would eventually become standard on the other models as well, but its appearance on the 2000 GTV made the model even more unique from other Alfa Romeo models. Below is a more comprehensive overview of other features in the 1973 Alfa Romeo 2000 GTV.
