Ghostbusters car for sale on eBay
For sale: 1959 Cadillac with 100,000 miles. Previous owners: Dr. Peter Venkman, Dr. Raymond Stantz, Dr. Egon Spengler. Features include new tires, room for three unlicensed nuclear accelerators, customized logo on the side ... oh, and room to store up to a dozen ectoplasmic entities.
Yes, the real Ghostbusters car is for sale on eBay today. So far, the top bid is $40,000, but that doesn't appear to meet the owner's set reserved price. The vehicle appears to be in a car museum in Ohio. Click here to see the item on eBay, but hurry -- the auction ends today.

Strange, the car was JUST revamped for the BluRay release of the film, I'm really surprised they're selling it already!

wouldn't it be cheaper to get the same model car, and just do it yourself. c'mon, i like ghostbuster's, but for $40,000, bill murray better come with it.

OMG, I've telling the Band we need to get this car.
It'd certainly be cooler driving to a Rubix show in the Ghostbusters car, than the soccer mom minivan.
And would fit more than a delorean....

It'd be the perfect car for Stuck in the '80s, but only if the siren still works.

Whoever buys this can't possibly be married.
