Probably because the Cadillac wouldn’t hold up as a taxi.

I'd have to disagree about the 98-2002 Town Cars interior. I used to own a 96 TC for quite a number of years, and as much as I loved that car and for how comfortable it was, I really didn't care for the interior materials and design compared to the current 2002 that I've owned the past few years. The 2002 (to me) is far better when it comes to the dash design, faux wood pattern, larger and more supple seats, more cushy headliner materials also used on the A pillars and rear sail panels. Also the oak steering wheel is a nice touch as opposed to full leather which usually wears out. 2003 and beyond there really wasn't much change except for a quartz clock, and a few accents that used a brushed aluminum texture. They also changed the seats which look more like captains chairs instead of the traditional full bench. Yes, I also have seen the TC used as taxi cabs, but again the 4.6 is s more durable motor compared to the Caddys LT1. Those taxis are usually the ones that have 300-500 thousand miles.

Was the image of a Chevy Caprice or a Crown Vic ruined by being used as a police car or a taxi? No.
