There is a Taurus for sale in California. The Craigslist seller says that is is the original one from the RoboCop movies, but is it? We have no idea.

A quick search of the internets resulted in this link to some Ford Taurus club/fan site (I guess), that goes into some details on the movie cars. Scroll to the bottom where it talks about the replicas and you’ll see something that resembles the cars in pictures.

Good news: it don’t matter, it’s still a RoboCop copcar and may still get you laid with some cougar (doubtful).

Bad news: it’s still an ’89 Taurus and it won’t get you laid (no doubt).

From the ad:

Own the Car From ROBOCOP! – $3000 (Thousand Oaks)

I have for sale an actual Ford Police Vehicle used for the 80s RoboCop movies!!

This car is awesome Kay? Its got a working siren, a PA System, flashing red and blue lights [which ARE legal if you keep them covered when you drive!], a cage in the back (for prisoners obviously), an onboard computer (its from the 80s so dont expect to get wifi or anything, it does make little clicking noises though), and all completely authentic original paint and “Detroit Police” logos and insignia. This car is the complete package for any collector or hardcore RoboCop fans. Especially with the release of the new movie, you could potentially make some money with this bad boy. Drive it down to Comic Con, take it to the new movie premier, turn on the lights while its in your garage and have a little rave, all of these options can be yours for the one low price of whatever you offer me!

Included in this sale is the 1989 Ford Taurus, all of the RoboCop dec, and my personalized license plate “ROBO310”, if you want I will also throw in a DVD of the Original RoboCop movie if you promise to mail it back to Netflix in 3 days.

But in all seriousness, this is a really cool car, I bought it when I was 17 and now i’m 19 and trying to sell some stuff for college money. Its a bit of a fixer upper but arent we all? It drives perfect. It starts every time. New oil. New battery. less than 100,000 miles.

So basically it comes down to this:

Do you want to be awesome?

or

Do you want to be a complete loser?

Unless you call or text me at 805.630.XXXX, I guess we both know what the answer is.
