Ludicrously Expensive Cars at the 2008 SEMA Show

Ghostbusters ECTO-1 by Sony Xplod, +$250,000

Sony could have loaded up a Cadillac Escalade with amps, tweeters, and an LCD screen in the gas cap door to show off their Xplod audio gear. The child in us is delighted that they rescued the original Ghostbusters ECTO-1 from backlot cinema vehicle purgatory instead. Our sources say they paid roughly a quarter of a million dollars to have it restored to within 90 percent of its original content, making it one of the priciest '59 Cadillac restorations ever.
