Ferris Bueller's Day Off mandela effect

Okay, so i have a question for those who have seen the movie back in the day. Last night i was with my snugglepuff and we decided to watch FBDO since he has never seen it before and was interested. I've seen it a few times but it's been a long while since the last time.
Okay now, down to brass tacks. I'm a car guy. I notice cars within movies and even if i may not know a movie inside and out, certain cars make an impression on me. Upon watching it last night, i was shocked to see that Cameron's car in the movie is now a white Alfa Romeo. In the reality that i used to watch the movie in, Cameron's car was a beat up yellow BMW 2002. Also missing now is the part where he holds a sustained high rev to warm the car up lest it stall out, although the scene could have perhaps been edited out for time. His whole short time with that car just seems off to my recollection. This isn't a 100% ME for me like, say, Dolly's braces in Moonraker, but i'm quite sure it was a 2002 and am wondering if others here remember similarly. Which car do you recollect?
As it is now:

A yellow BMW 2002(albeit much nicer than the one in FBDO):

It’s the same it’s always been. Nobody is reshooting scenes in movies to fuck with your head.

This movie came out in 1986 and you're claiming a 2002 vehicle was the original one used in said film...or am I missing what you're saying here?
EDIT I got what you mean by 2002 now. I'm not a car person. I always remember Cameron's car being the white beat up "POS...but at least you have a POS!".

That yellow car does look familiar but i cant remember from where......maybe it reminds me of Ford Pintos and those rear ending videos?
I looked up "Ferris Bueller's Day Off Car Mandela Effect" on the interwebz, i couldnt find anything. Checked IMDB for goofs, didnt find anything about any yellow cars. I dunno

Are we possibly conflating the taxi cab scenes in Chicago with Cameron's car?

I’ve seen this movie countless times. Cameron’s car has always been white.

2002 cc’s. I.e. the displacement of the engine, not the year of the car.

No. Completely different part ov the movie and completely different cars(checker cab vs bmw 2002 or alfa sport sedan).

Your remembrance is well noted and respected but we have to consider that many mandela effects follow a sort ov 2/3rds rule wherein a majority will have a clear memory one way and a minority the other despite both parties claiming clear memory ov the event. This is just the nature ov the ME and lends added credence to the convergent reality theory. Also, 2 other aspects ov this particular example for me are the make ov the car(alfa Romeo vs bmw) as well as the sustained rev scene, although the latter could have been a time edit.
Again folks, this is not a 100% ME for me and i'm quite willing to accept that i am mistaken. I am however, a full believer in the ME and examples ov definite MEs for me are as follows:
-Oscar Meyer(this one actually alerted me to the phenomena before i had even heard ov the ME) now spelled Mayer -Dolly in the Bond film Moonraker having braces when she now does not. This was essential to the plot. -A-team van. I've seen every airwolf, a-team, and macgyver episode ever growing up. Reruns ov these shows are what i watched instead ov cartoons. The a-team van was black with a red stripe, not black and grey with a red stripe. -Kennedy assassination. 4 people in the car and the Zapruder film was B&W, not color. -Field of Dreams. The quote was "If you build it, they will come". It is now "he will come". -Berenstein bears, not Berenstain bears. -Monopoly man had a monocle. -Mona Lisa now has a definite smile. It was a point ov contention before. -He said "I see white people" in scary movie, not "dead people". -The scene in scarface(1983) where Pacino says something to the effect ov "Give her another quaalude and she'll love me in the morning"(itself a point ov contention as it's now "love me again") was absolutely in the hot tub, not at the restaurant.
P.S. Another interesting car ME that many debate is in Back to the Future wherein the terrorists drive a bay window('72-'79) VW Type II now, yet many remember it as being a Toyota van.

Absolutely ridiculous.
Edit: although I will admit I do remember field of dreams saying “they”. Now I have to try and find my original copy.

I do remember it being the "Bernstein Bears" and not the "Bernstain" bears but I feel like I was extremely young at the time and just misread it and had it spelled that way in my mind up until 15 years later when the series of books was brought back to my attention. I chalk it up to collective faulty memory not our galaxy falling into an alternate wormhole dimension or whatever

lavod, buddy. All due respect to your beliefs, but some of that stuff you listed isn’t mandala effect stuff, just shit people misremembered. I can’t speak for all of it, but some of those instances come from movies I’ve watched my whole life, and know very very well. In Scarface, “another quaalude she’ll love me in the morning” is definitely in the restaurant. 100%. And in BTTF, the Libyan terrorists were always in the Volkswagen. I’m not a car guy (that’s why I’m not certain that Cameron’s car was an Alfa Romeo instead of a BMW (though I do know it was white)), but I’ve always known it to be a VW. I even made this post referencing that fact a couple weeks ago. I’m as sure of that stuff as I am that Jason Vorhees had red marks on his goalie mask in the 80s Fridays, or that Bill Murray was laying on a hotel floor when he said “he slimed me”. This is stuff that has always been this way, but could easily be misremembered.

No clue, I’ve never seen it. And watching it now wouldn’t mean anything. For all I know, lavod is right about that one.
