While it is possible to reserve a G7 taxi and have it waiting for you at CDG, there is absolutely no need to do so. At any given time there are scores of taxis idling in the staging area, waiting to be called up to the taxi departure platforms. Whether you board a Taxi G7, a Taxi Bleu, or an Alpha Taxi, they are all licensed by the Préfecture de Police and similarly insured to carry passengers; most in late model luxury cars.
Taxis will almost always cost you significantly less than a private shuttle. Shared ride shuttles will cost significantly more than the train and usually take much longer to reach your destination.
For those staying near Opéra, the Roissybus is only 10€. Air France Buses link CDG to Gare de Lyon, Montparnasse, l´Arc de Triomphe, or Porte Maillot and any of these cost less than a shared ride shuttle, particularly if tickets are purchased in advance:

However, I agree with ParisAmsterdam; if for some reason someone simply must use a shuttle service, private or shared, never pay in advance.
