Although different actors play the driver in each scene and the second time the interior looks different (no dividing window between the front and back). Other 1980s Caprice taxis: A 1980s Chevrolet Caprice NYPD car just about visible in one scene: An Impala taxi of the same generation: HD images courtesy of Police Car Fan. -- Last edit: 2013-07-21 11:03:19
