* [[Gay Paree]]: The second movie takes Daniel and Emilien to Paris to rescue a French State Secretary and Petra from the Yakuza.
* [[The
* [[Girl On Girl Is Hot]]: In the American remake, one of the bank robbers pats down Lt. Robbins for weapons in a suggestive way, much to the pleasure of all the guys present.
* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: A group of criminals drive three slightly tuned black Japanese cars–in a movie that was released one year before ''[[The Fast and The Furious]]''.
* [[Hollywood Skydiving]]: It's perfectly okay to jump off a flying Transall in a Peugeot 406 on which three parachutes are mounted (because one or two might fail). At least for Général Bertineau.
* [[Housewife]]: Camille Coutant-Kerbalec is perfectly this despite [[Disappeared Dad|lacking a husband]].
* [[Instant Awesome, Just Add Ninja]]: The Yakuza [[Mooks]] in ''Taxi 2''.
** In the same movie, Gibert believes he can increase his awesome by adding a bit of ninja to himself. He fails.

* [[Large Ham]]: Commissaire Gibert.

* [[Nitro Boost]]: Daniel's 406 in ''Taxi 3'', but with pastis instead of nitrous oxide.
* [[Obvious Pregnancy]]: Not so obvious for overworked Emilien that Petra is pregnant in ''Taxi 3''–eight months in, even.
