You do realize it's probably just a movie car, right? |

It's got the actual NYC Taxi fleet trim, and the black lettering on the side is from the Upper East Side Cab Company. |

And nearly all the NY Cab companies bought from Chevy In 1988. |

For a background car a real taxi is more probable than when used in a car chase -- Last edit: 2007-04-15 20:01:16 |

Right. Cause you can't just go to a cab company and ask "can I rent a taxi?" Run it through hell, and then return it. (Though it would be nice to do!!) |

Well, some did: /vehicle_21874-Volkswagen-Scirocco-Typ-53-1977.html (not a taxi though) |

Actually, there are certain instances where the movie production has their own fleet of taxis. Good examples would be when you're watching a movie, say, from 2000 that takes place in New York and you see a bunch of 1992 Crown Victorias and box body Caprices as taxis. Still, I mostly assumed this might have been a movie car because of the missing hubcaps, but both of you are correct. Although it could be anywhere between a 1987-1989 -- Last edit: 2009-01-24 01:04:49 |
