MIAMI VICE CARS

Some of the awesome cars from Eighties hit TV show Miami Vice!

[@bobuncle8704]

Boy oh boy does that bring back memories. So many great cars. Thanks for the memories Nick

[@MOTAHOLIC]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@johnrobins2553]

This series is a petrol head`s dream, made in the days when petrol was not a problem. For it`s day showed the best of European and American manufacture's had to offer. The music from the series is the best I have come across..

[@CynicalBastard511]

2:26 That's the most badass a DeLorean ever looked on screen.

[@gervers]

Ferrari didn’t like the fact that season 1 & 2 used a replica, V8 corvette Daytona and the show was hugely successful so they gave them the white Testarossa! My favourite Ferrari of all time! Well that and Magnum’s 308! I’ve been lucky enough to drive both and they didn’t disappoint although being 6ft 3 makes these Ferraris very difficult to drive comfortably

[@kevinfleming9919]

Actually they didn't just give them the Testarossa (actually it was two that were black but repainted white to show up in the night shots better), it was part of a settlement agreement reached after Ferrari filed a lawsuit against the show for Trademark Infringement on their brand name and intellectual property for using rebodied Corvettes with "unapproved" replica bodies. As a settlement on the lawsuit they gave them two cars to use for the last three seasons, the show had to place the car and show the Ferrari badge on screen with a guaranteed amount of air time each season (which is why they did a lot of "time filling" scenes of them about to get a bad guy and driving down the road with no dialog to music playing), Ferrari didn't have to pay anything for product endorsement for actual Ferrari's being used, and they agreed to let the show use a rebodied '72 Pantera (because it had the same wheelbase) with a fiberglass replica body for stunt shots.

[@sergeantmasson3669]

gervers, ask Tom Selleck. He's 6'4" tall and size 14 shoes. He had a few issues driving Robin Master's Ferrari quite often in the Magnum PI show.

[@neilfairless4589]

Anyone else spot Phil Collins?

[@MOTAHOLIC]

Correct! In the episode Phil The Shill

[@oneslackr]

@@MOTAHOLIC : Thanks Nick, that was nice to see all of those MV cars. I had forgotten about some makes/models like the Aston Martin Lagonda at 2:04. I think I told you on Aquaholic that my friends & I were teenagers here in the U.S. back in the mid '80s & we use to watch Miami Vice every week. I shared this video with one of them a few minutes ago & he enjoyed seeing the cars again too.

[@ArnoldClarke]

More importantly was the Sunrader at 3:01 (:

[@YoungFrankMatthews]

Yeah in the Jalpa

[@Stellar-Cowboy]

Who’s excited for The Grand Tour Season 5?

Fantastic....Best TV show to come out of the USA Ever ❤️😎...Cars, music & girls !!! 👍❤️❤️

[@sandeepkumarsingh4567]

Wow just amazing Sir.. Awesome Cars...

[@chrish2996]

Hi Nick. Jaguar E type, lotus, ferrari, lambos, Aston Martin. So many absolute classics. Even Phil collins i think? Great memories of Miami Vice. Awesome video thanks Mr Burnham.

[@MOTAHOLIC]

Yes indeed! Phil Collins in Phil The Shill, well spotted :)

[@notrut]

An acquaintance of mine used to go to Malaga every few months to buy repossessed Drug Dealer cars ... he thrashed a Merc up the motorway to catch Amsterdam Ferry to UK ... at the last Toll Booth he got whacked with a €500 Speeding Fine. Average speed cameras had tracked him from the Belgian border.... Tut Tut

[@shaunalderman7091]

So, at 1:58 how did stretching a 600 SEL turn it into a 10000 SEL? Methinks the coach builders indulged in a tad too much of that Miami Vice nose candy and added the extra 0 for fits and giggles! Fun, and little known, fact: Pete Waterman got his Testarossa wedged between two bollards in London when he underestimated just how wide the Ferrari was.

[@samuelegunlusi1017]

This show made me love cars.

[@Bootneck-RMC]

The majority of the cars are absolutely amazing, the clothes and hairstyles however are very suspect LOL (this was my era)😂

[@kfeltenberger]

Nice to see you captured the fleeting glimpses of the Aston Martin Lagonda!

[@canadadan4437]

Awesome Nick truly a trip down memory lane I even had a couple of these in my youth the cheapest ones 😂👍🇨🇦

[@kevinfleming9919]

Great work putting together all those amazing cars! 👍👏 Even though it's Miami Vice, after seeing the yellow Caddy pulling out I thought of Don Johnsons yellow "Pseudo Cuda" on Nash Bridges. (Pseudo because it wasn't really a 71 Hemi Cuda convertible, but actually a bunch of '70's with 340 V8's). Miami Vice was great to watch just for the scenery of the cars driving around!.....and the bikinis 👙 of course!😉😜

[@clarissawestbrook2203]

Awesome uploaded on my bday and Miami Vice was so stylish and ahead of it's time.

[@TwoWheelWarrior]

I watched the Phil Collins episode when it originally aired. I was 11 or 12 years old. That was the first time I had ever seen a Jalpa. I was like what the heck is that?

[@keabot]

Mercs 😍👌🏽

[@luchopena2438]

woooow!!! eleganteeee ah !!

[@FLGurl]

I would say Nick you had a lot of fun putting that one together. That was the fastest video I have seen in quite some time. Thank you.

[@MOTAHOLIC]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@irishterminator.]

Hey Nick what a fantastic collection of beautiful cars it brought back lots of great memories peace and good vibes to you and all

[@MOTAHOLIC]

Thank you, you too!

[@jackirichard414]

Cool cars

[@TrilosonicResolutions]

This time was the absolute peak of car aesthetics. I really see no appeal in the modern designs. Great compilation!

[@MOTAHOLIC]

Glad you liked it!

[@phillo1818]

Memorable compilation!

[@cologne2792]

Great video! I loved the real Daytona at just before four minutes driven by John Heard.

[@MOTAHOLIC]

Well spotted.

[@sergeantmasson3669]

cologne2792, that was a fake Ferrari Daytona also.

[@joanroubaud7665]

Il was a real one the yellow , the scene in the garage shows the V12 open bonnet 😉

[@mauriebarnes8272]

Editing this would have taken some time. Thanks for a great video of the amazing cars from the coolest show in the 80's

[@MOTAHOLIC]

It sure did but I was pleased with the result 🙂

[@ashleypierce8500]

I've been expecting this video =] Superbly done!

[@MOTAHOLIC]

Thank you! 🙂

[@mikehogan3900]

Just superb....

[@hudsondonnell444]

Fortunately, the Ferrari 365 GTS/4 blown up, was actually a mass produced Chevy Corvette C4.

[@PippiT]

I so totally enjoyed your "montage" of Miami Vice cars. I love watching reruns of that show. Good times. Thank you, love your channels. I am, also an Aquaholic aholic BFN

[@MOTAHOLIC]

Thank you very much!

[@cmdrsocks]

Sadly many rims were kerbed during the making of this movie.

I know you are a big Miami Vice fan MOTAHOLIC aka Aquaholic, but are aware that living in Brixham Torbay not far from where you live in Torquay is a Honorary Colonel of the Miami Police dept, who has the freedom of Miami and even a day named after him in Miami. This was all achieved during the Miami Vice and Scarface era. This man has even had numerous meals with Don Johnson when he lived for 10 years in the famous Fontainebleau hotel in Miami. Just thought you might find that interesting, check out his website officialbillysutton.com. for more info!

[@MOTAHOLIC]

Thanks, I'll check it out! :)

[@BB49.]

@@MOTAHOLIC what you need to do next year on smugglers blues 2 boat is take Billy out for a spin and interview him about his Miami vice experiences and his meetings with Don Johnson etc. Now that would make a great video, if interested contact me by email from Billy’s website..

1:03 Lamborghini, my favorite! 3:48 What yacht is that? Can we get a tour? ;)

The Daytona wasn’t a real one but a “Corvette” Daytona

[@MOTAHOLIC]

Indeed. By McBurnie Coachcraft California

[@MrJdp1968]

@@MOTAHOLIC the stunt Testarossa was built on a 1972 De Tomaso Pantera

[@MOTAHOLIC]

@@MrJdp1968 Correct. You can see it at 6:00 it's recognisable by its deeply dished rear wheels (completely different style to the real Testarossa).

Luv it! Favorite... Lotus

That's a proper eighties wedge!

[@sergeantmasson3669]

My favorite was Tubb's '61 Caddy convertible.

[@jamesrichardson476]

I read somewhere that the budget for one episode of the programme was more than the annual budget of the actual Miami Vice squad. Maybe an urban myth, but it seems perfectly possible...

[@lssimon.7143]

Was wondering if I'm going to see a mustang and puff there it was👍🏽

[@MrMarko4]

The black Mercedes 500 / 560 SEL my favourite, look so evil!. Russian mafia esq... noticed a Doleran in there too, beautiful 🤩 Ps is that a Fleming @ 3:48?

[@MOTAHOLIC]

Agreed about the Merc! Not a Fleming

[@sergeantmasson3669]

A DeLorean looked cool but the performance sucked.

[@jimmyquinn9639]

I think you are the new Don Johnson you wish 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@elz1250]

White Italian sports cars are something 👌🏾

[@Dorset_Dave]

Great choice of song to go with it. Nick, check out a group called "The Midnight". You will love them, they even have a track called Crockett's Revenge!

[@MOTAHOLIC]

I'll give them a go!

[@nick3551]

2:05 is that an Aston Martin Lagonda? I'm currently enjoying the cars in Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. Nice 80s vid Nick👍

[@MOTAHOLIC]

That's exactly what it is, well spotted!

[@Wenchework]

I remember first car Crockett had was blown up and yes I would have that angry shocked face if it had happen to me lol

[@joshriver75]

That was Phil Collins in the white Jalpa

[@MOTAHOLIC]

Correct! 😃

[@rh1507]

Just the standard type of cars for the Miami Vice days. I deeply doubt though that most law enforcement officers are driving one to two hundred dollar cars these days long past the Miami Vice days.

Which is your favourite car from this video? I think there was an E Type and that's my favourite. Entertaining video, thank you. Take care and stay safe. 👍👍👍🏴‍☠️☠🚘🚘🚘😎

[@MOTAHOLIC]

Did you not actually watch the video..? 🤔

[@bryduhbikeguy]

I really liked his 'Daytona',but the Testitooclosa stole the soptlight.

[@CPMUNSEY]

Miami Vice was the best show ever on television!! I’d take that black 599 Daytona over everything else shown on here. Such a beautiful machine👌🏽

[@sergeantmasson3669]

It was a Fake. It was actually a Corvette Daytona made to look like a Ferrari.
