My Dad kept this from his days at Miami Vice/ Michael Mann productions. I took a picture of it, it’s like a magazine page basically. I think it’s just a prop or something for the show. Wondering if anyone has ever seen it before.
What a scene . I can’t imagine how bad things like this were in the 70s/80s. Really chilling.
Great S04 episode with that S02 feel to it!
Hi r/MiamiVice! I design LEGO models as a hobby and submitted this Ocean Drive art deco hotel to a LEGO building contest.
Miami Vice was one of my inspirations for this build. I can’t make direct references to MV but I was able to sneak in some easter eggs. For example: the driver of the car is based on Sonny and the car is a mix of his Daytona and classic LEGO car from 1992.
With enough votes, this could become a real LEGO set in 2027.

This was her first credit, two years before she starred in Coming to America. One of the most beautiful actresses of all time.
Here's a scene from the episode with 'Candy' by Jan Hammer playing in the background -

“340 horsepower, 180 miles an hour. New paint, new rubber. Absolutely essential for any type of serious police work. God damn right.”
Two stylish partners in Miami go undercover to take down a drug lord while surrounded by fast cars, boats, nightlife, neon aesthetics and a soundtrack defining its era. Swap Armani for oversized jerseys, Jan Hammer for Ludacris, and Crockett & Tubbs become Brian & Roman.
Kid is rocking that shirt. I guess if you make a film in Ft. Lauderdale in the 80s you gotta represent Miami Vice in some way
I may be imagining it, but I swear there is at least one scene, from one episode of the first two series, where we see the Daytona with the roof up. I haven't been through all the episodes in a while, but with your encyclopedic knowledge of the show, one of you will know for sure if I saw it or just thought I had! I'm wondering if it was black to match the exterior, or tan to match the interior. I've seen both types on OTHER examples of a Daytona, both real and fake.
Edit to say - thanks guys! Much appreciated!
The Fairwind Hotel, formerly Fairmont. 1000 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach
I love it. It’s completely ridiculous, but I’m fine with it. Thats my song!
Here's my Miami Vice-inspired pocket square. It was custom-made by a tailor from cotton fabric I bought.
What do you guys think?
