Over the last couple months I've been shooting and prepping photos and video of "Paris", this Rothmans Porsche 911 Tribute Car, the time has finally come to put the car up for sale and release the photos. We wanted to do something very different and unique location wise.... I'm sure most of you will recognize it, but for those that do not the "house" location is actually the house that was used in the famous 1986 movie Ferris Bueller's Day Off. What better spot to shoot a historic vehicle then in a historic location?

The car is currently for sale on eBay and can be found here: Porsche : 911 | eBay

There are TONS more photos on my Flickr here: /
Short description from the eBay ad...

Cool!
The place from Ferris Bueller, is that actually someone's house (I see some furniture in there) or is it a garage like in the movie? (By the way, for the movie nerds, this was Cam's house, not Ferris' house)

 

It's actually a separate building from the main house. It could be lived in... there is heat, ac, cable, a kitchen, bathroom, and furniture. It's a pretty sweet space.

The car just sold on eBay for $81,500 and is being shipped to Mexico to run in the Mexico 1000. Pretty sweet.

 

great pics man. glad to see you're still takin a ton of awesome pics! that location is badass haha
