We've seen a lot of expensive movie memorabilia before, but nothing as cool as this. The Ghostbusters Ecto 1 ($150,000) is the 1959 Cadillac that the 'Busters drove in the original film. As fate would have it, that isn't the only movie the car has made an appearance in — it was also featured in In the Heat of the Night, starring Sidney Poitier. Sure, it's $150K, but it's also one of the most unique and memorable cars in movie history.

NM Limited Edition 2007 Lexus GS 450h
Another premium gift found in the Neiman Marcus Christmas Book is this limited edition Lexus GS 450h ($65,000). The hybrid luxury car is available in an exclusive exterior color, “Crystalline Ice,” and merges a 3.5-liter direct-injection V6 engine with high-output electric motor rear-wheel drive for more than 300 horsepower and great fuel economy. The interior has leather and wood details, Mark Levinson surround sound, voice-activated DVD Navigation System with Bluetooth, back-up camera, and a power meter that replaces the tachometer. Better hurry if you’re wanting one — only 75 will be made.

Jeep Trailhawk
Another new concept vehicle announced at last week's North American International Auto Show was the rugged Jeep Trailhawk. Designed for the open road — both paved and unpaved — the Trailhawk boasts a modern angular design and broad stance with a long 116-inch wheelbase. Outside are 22-inch wheels, signature seven-slot Jeep grille, and HID projector beam quad lamps, while the inside has sweet black and orange trim, spray-finish flooring, and removable, portable audio pod sound systems in each quarter panel. And a Jeep wouldn't be a Jeep without a little sky showing. The Trailhawk is an open-air concept — it has fully retractable windows all-around and removable glass panels over the seats and cargo compartment.
Dodge Charger SRT8
Yes, "Grab life by the horns" is a stupid slogan. But this beast makes up for it. The 2006 Dodge Charger SRT8 ($39,000 est.) is a true muscle car. It boasts a 425-horsepower 6.1-liter HEMI V8 engine good enough for 0-60 in about 5 seconds and a quarter-mile time in the 13-second range. The Charger offers 20-inch aluminum wheels with high-performance F1 Goodyears, a functional hood scoop, dual 3.5-inch exhaust tips, and your youth.
