Technically, no, it wouldn't have made sense. Logically, they would have just "fancied up" the existing car. Yes. I always, until today, figured Ecto-1A was just Ecto-1 with stickers on it.

...But then if that's true, because of this new movie it means that they would have had to at some point take all of that stuff OFF and that makes even less goddamn sense because all that sh*t was soooo coooooool.

So at this point, either there are two cars - Ecto-1 and Ecto-1A - OR Ghostbusters II didn't happen.

Because otherwise, someone in-universe (Egon?) said "We don't need the hazard tape or the satellite dish" and YES YOU GODDAMN DO, MOTHERF*CKER.

OR, another option emerges. One in which the people making this new movie are idiots, and either forgot to put the hazard tape and other flair back on the car OR figured it was better without it. Which is WRONG.

So again. Technically the two cars being separate and distinct vehicles IS illogical. You're right.

BUT, that's the thing we're saying happened, regardless. Because ALL other alternatives lead to me wanting to beat the sh*t out of SOMEONE for making very bad decisions.
