The guest star that was the suspect and driver of the car in the episode was Danny Sullivan who won the Indy 500 in 1985. The car was a REAL one...one of 65 ever built. And a legend in itself.

[@ryancarbrey2610]

This is what 'bothered' me about the episode (and Crockett's Daytona while we're at it taking it at screen value that it's a real Ferrari and not a kit car built on a Corvette used in production...because someone will bring that up). I feel like this crime is pretty quickly solved by figuring out who of the 65 owners of a 906 brought their to Miami. I mean, I've never seen them as anything other than all white but it still couldn't be that hard to narrow it down. Then the undercover cop Crocket driving around in a car where there's only like 115 of in left hand drive seems like a bad idea. "Who burned you?" "That guy in the crazy rare black Ferrari." Like, he's busting people who make buckets of money and buy expensive stuff, at least a few are going to know how rare a Daytona Spyder is. Also, it's like $400k. I think I looked it up at the time but I can't imagine how...way too much money to use as cover for their vice officer. The Testarosa made way more sense. Everything looked so cool that I watched it anyway. No one else was giving me the possibility of exotic car chases every week. And there was this cool ass episode where they chased a Porsche 906 and the episode revolved around the Camel GTP series which was my favorite racing series...and Danny Sulivan ends the episode by trying to make a break for it in a 962. I wanted to see that chase last longer but there was no way it would with a 250 mph race car with a tunnel body against...anything else. Also probably no one was willing to let them go too nuts with their prototype Le Mans race car...

[@springbloom5940]

@@ryancarbrey2610 Indeed LE does use 'crazy rare' and 'super expensive' cars, yachts, planes, etc. as props for SO. There was actually an episode where they wanted to take back the car and he had to convince them that it was crucial to his cover and ongoing operations. So, its not like he just signed it out of the motorpool. The irony is the kit car in the show, will handily outperform the real thing.

[@rusty9129]

I know the car and the man who drove it during the filming of the chase sequences. The producer of MV, Michael Mann, decided he wanted something exotic and rare to be featured in this episode as it surrounded the Miami Grand Prix and Danny Sullivan's acting debut. Calls went out and one curator said, "Sure!". The car was brought to Miami in a semi from its home in a private collection in Florida. The scenes were shot in a single night, the car was put back in the truck and taken back to its display area, undamaged. Sadly, this curator didn't get express permission to use the car and even though nothing bad happened, he lost his job. It all ended well as he went out on his own and has been extremely successful in the restoration business for decades.

"They ´re racing in the New York City streets all the time". I´ve been waiting for this scene on your channel.

When this episode was aired in the german tv, I just turned 18 and got my driving licence. I felt like Crockett driving in the black BMW E30 of my brother.

[@albertgaspar627]

There was also "unofficial" racing in New York streets, namely the type of street racing one saw in the movie Fast and Furious. The bigger street racers would buy up Pro Stock dragsters (race cars using production car bodies) and trailer them over to highways. After midnight until 4am, they would block off and shut down certain highway sections on Fridays and Saturdays and treat it like a drag strip until the cops came by....and then move to another location. If you were to see the movie "Two Lane Blacktop", right at the beginning you spot the California version of it--after the Watts riots, the LAPD turned a blind eye to the racing since no one doing it bothered to worry about race, color or creed, so it let off the tensions brewing in other parts of the city, as much street racing is people watching as well as participating. www.hemmings.com/stories/article/wild-in-the-streets www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/new-york-street-racing-60s-70s-story-found.185862/

When you're an undercover cop but apparently everybody in Miami knows undercover cop... I don't know how they survive past the first season.

[@axi0matic]

Yeah, it's like the internationally-renowned 'spy' James Bond.

[@thomaspavelko9412]

@@axi0matic I have yet to figure out how that is supposed to work out myself.

[@jeffreyb8770]

@@axi0matic yes! And like James Bond, they were an impossible act to imitate. Hollywood sleight-of-hand.

My favorite tv show of the 80’s!!

[@HerrinSchadenfreude]

I think Crockett grinned more in these few scenes than in the entire rest of the series, lol. I miss the 80's like missing a kidney.

I remember seeing this episode back in the day. Time flies.

[@adidas1076]

1:18 to 1:28 the Corvette conversion shows its V8 sound without a sound dub. :-)

[@cologne2792]

I could never work that out. Was the sound effects person on holiday? It also briefly develops an automatic gearbox.

Kit car chasing a kit car. Was a cool show. Did not age well though

[@cologne2792]

@@mikehotchkiss8975 The very rare Porsche 906 (also known as the Carrera 6) used in the episode, one of just 65 produced in 1965-66 was a real one borrowed from a Florida collector.

[@mikehotchkiss8975]

@@cologne2792 lol. Good one. Thought it was a good bet it was kit also

[@06VistaBlueGT1]

@@mikehotchkiss8975 yeah, I don't believe they made Porsche 906 Carrera kit cars back then.

I remember reading back when it was a hit that their shooting budget was over 1 million per episode. And the budget for the REAL Miami vice dept was something 845,000 per YEAR

[@roleemack1535]

Well that's mess up but I guess feel appreciated sheesh their the Law they can print some money

[@Wolfmen77]

Yeah and that Grandprix is next year for real. Love this serie.

[@big_mike_nyc]

The Fat Boys were the real stars of that episode!

[@mi39471]

Thank you for saying so! Everyone on this thread is talking about the f&$&ing cars!

[@Enid2Sacramento]

"MTV Cops" on a napkin. Thanks, Brandon Tartikoff!

[@shumble69]

Still one of the best shows ever.

[@lougarou8431]

The original "fast and furious" scene! LOL

[@vegetasolo1221]

The Ferrari Daytona Spider Crockett and Tubbs drive in seasons one and two was in actuality a kit car; a plexiglass body on top of a Chevy Corvette chassis with a Corvette power plant, on Pirelli tires. It was cheaper than using a genuine Daytona Spider. Ferrari CEO Enzo Ferrari offered the use of a new white Ferrari Testarossa for seasons three to five.

[@cologne2792]

Have a look at the pilot episode and see if you can spot the real one...

[@castieldiallo2945]

We know that about the Ferrari.

[@shepardbook]

And I really preferred that kit Daytona to the Testarossa. Just looked cooler to me.

[@gerardmcmillan8591]

I thought I heard the Tesstarosa was originally black but they had it painted white?

[@TheMercuryProject]

@@gerardmcmillan8591 Correct. You can see the original black paint job in the S3:E1 "When Irish Eyes are Crying."

[@if6was929]

I know its not a real Ferrari but I just love that Daytona! I can just smell that leather, damn!
