My wife picked this up today for me at Walmart. Ever since I seen one of them on here I've been wanting one. Never though I be able to find one in the wild. Well I guess I didn't, but she found one for me. She's going to be nice this time and let me have it. :thumbsup: She kept the last white lightning that she found for her self. :cry:

Anybody have a clue to how many they made with the white wall rubber tires?

My wife keeps threatening to find me a Taxi if I don't quit buying so many cars.

I love that MB taxi, one of my favorites. Glad you finally got yours.

I believe there was a run of 7500 with the rubber tires and another 7500 with the hard plastic tires. I think it is broke down elsewhere on this board.

Thanks for the pic. Now I know what to look for. I've already missed out twice with the Taxi and '05 Mustang already being gone.

In other words the white tire version and blackwall version are basically the same in rarity?? I have both, put up for my son, just curious?? Thanks Russ, argeezer18@aol.com :hat:

I just found one of those at Wal-mart, someone hid it behind the 1:24 JL's on the bottom shelf along with the VW Bug Taxi and the Mustang. Glad I looked.

I could have picked up two of those yesterday, but I left them. Maybe I shouldn't have, but they aren't my style and SFs are now $3 here.....
