I bought one in December (the Mitsubishi HC5500), with the ceiling mount 
and screen it ran about $2K.  It was a special bundle deal (and there was 
a rebate), but that should give you a good ballpark.

It throws a 106" image, really nice for the home theatre.  I do have a 
technical issue that I need to call Mitsu about, though, periodically I 
can't turn the projector on without unplugging it.  Which is a pain for a 
ceiling mounted projector.
