In Seattle they're auctioning some really fancy outhouses on eBay. Minimum bid is $89,000...

These things appear to be really tricked out. My favorite part of the item description is:
'Once inside the unit, users have a set amount of time of fully enclosed privacy - with a one minute warning - before the doors reopen. Once vacated, the APT enters the self cleaning cycle which takes approximately three minutes. This time period is adjustable by the owner/managing agent.'
How'd you like to be sitting there, minding your business, when the recorded voice says 'One minute until doors open...' Talk about being rushed.
