Just wondering if this strat has been thought about? The only problem I can think of is if the VIP gets in the same side as the taxi driver

Wow, I've actually been working on getting out of the Taxi for a while now. Never seemed to work really. Does the V.I.P. normally go to the passenger side when you get out of the Taxi? lol

I'll be honest, I tried to repeat this and I can't. It's pretty hard to do it and I got insanely lucky with pulling this off. If anyone else can pull it off, let me know. Also the V.I.P going in the passenger side is luck

I'm quite sure there's a one frame window for this trick... Since the cutscene is dependant on being inside of a Kaufman Cab, you essentially have to get out of your taxi as the cutscene is being triggered. Here's an example in gta3: In Luigi's Girl, on the other hand, the end cutscene is dependant on claude/misty being inside the marker, not being inside of a car, so there's a bigger window to get out of the car.
