Universal Studio Tour: War of the Worlds Plane Crash
The plane crash set from the 2005 film War of the Worlds. A commercial 747 aircraft was bought by the production and then chopped into pieces and transported to Universal, where the full set has been left fully dressed as it was during filming. The plane cost $60,000 (quite reasonable for a decommissioned 747) but the real costs were in the transportation to Universal Studios, which used flatbed trucks, a police escort, and a helicopter, and totalled $20,000.

Universal Studio Tour: Little Europe
The basic facades of the streets of Little Europe can easily be redressed and supplemented to transform the street into any location around the world. Street signs, lamposts and other street furniture can suggest any time or place to the audience.

Universal Studios: "Hero A" DeLorean from Back to the Future
About the car from 2013 article on Auto Blog website: Fans of the Back to the Future trilogy will be pleased to learn that Dr. Emmett "Doc" Brown's modified 1981 DeLorean DMC-12, better known as a time machine, is on display at Universal Studios Hollywood in California after a painstaking museum-quality restoration over the past year. While Universal used a handful of cars during filming from 1985 to 1990, this particular vehicle is referred to as the "Hero A" car, as it was the only Delorean featured in all three films.
The Time Machine Restoration Team was tasked with bringing the car back to its original state during its first appearance in Back to the Future, complete with its plutonium-powered flux capacitor (later versions were modified to develop power for time travel from lightning and garbage). From what we can tell, the team's work appears flawless.
