Vehicle Description
This is the coolest Taxi you'll ever see! Screen used in the 2004
movie Taxi with Queen Latifah and Jimmy Fallon. Fully documented
with a Certificate of Authenticity from Picture Car Warehouse. We
bought the car directly from the set before the movie was even
released. We sold it to a local movie car collector who has owned
it since. Other cars in his collection include cars from Fast and
Furious, Mad Max Interceptor, Starsky and Hutch and more. He holds
this car high because unlike most movie cars, this one is fully
streetable. It could be drive cross country like a normal daily
drive, with exception of all the attention...
The car was a a rust-free California P71 cruiser with only 41k
miles on it before being transformed by the late Eddie Paul. The
car features many custom details from the body kit made specially
for the movie cars to the custom hood scoop. It features custom
made 20" wheels, a motorized license plate that flips and more. The
car retains an air tank in the truck used for special effects as
well as the inventory ID tags in the jambs.
The car was used in many chase scenes and most notably this was the
car that was used in the scene where water was shooting out of the
hood after hitting a fire hydrant (did not hit a fire hydrant in
real life).
The dash of the car was autographed by the late Eddie Paul, Eddie
Paul was responsible for some of the memorable cars in Cinema
History, including cars from xXx, Grease, Cobra, Fast & Furious and
more.
This is a very rare opportunity to own a real screen used movie car
that is recognizable. Movie studios are becoming very strict about
not releasing screen used cars to the public for liability reason.
Don't pass it up, you'll never have the opportunity to get another
one!
