I also remember reading an article about the Pantera stunt car, but as far as what happen to it after the show ended-I don't know. Probably sitting out back in the studio's lot or chopped up and used in another show/movie. |

I wonder what happened to the stunt TR in the show. I know that 2 real 1996 TR were used & stunt Pantara remade into a TR. I have somewhere the Popular Mechanics with the schematics of the car. Does anyone remember it? |

Didn't Ted Nugent played a wife beating coke dealer that kills and buried all the coke buyers in a gravel pit? |

The bad guy was giving Crocket a demo of a shoulder launch rocket during a gun deal and used the Daytona as target practice. I can't recall who played the bad guy. sorry for not answering it completly I grew up watching Maimi Vice because Crocket drove a Daytona (my favorite Ferrari).If I remember correctly he had one heck of Ferrari mechanic that serviced his Daytona. |

Adam, I believe that is incorrect. Espidrills (sp?) are a type of shoe. Here's another hint: It starts with the letter "C". |

Ok - last Miami Vice trivia question (at least from me). What *probable* brand of white shoes did Crocket wear in the 80's? Hint: The brand was pretty stylish back then. |

"Everybody" knows his name was Elvis. But who knows what kind of gun Crocket used? Yeah, very trivial... |

OK, I've got another Miami Vice trivia question!! What was Crocketts pets name? Yes, his alligator! A gift certificate for an F50GT to the first correct answer. Yeah right! |

Here's a trivia question for you. What brand of cigarettes did Crocket smoke? |

After that whole replica daytona convertible thing, Ferrari decided it would be wise to supply them with the real thing. Two white Testarossas were used for the filming. I think they were earlier models with the one mirror, not sure though. I was always disappointed watching that, not nearly enough Ferrari in it. |

In fact the Miami Vice TR was originally black but was repainted flat white because the black had too much glare for the cameras. |

I always wondered what happened to that car! If I remember correctly they gave away a bunch of keys in a some sort of contest or drawing and if your key started it it was yours? I thought originally it was one by a woman? That was back in 87-88 I think so it should have been just a TR I thought the 512 TR was a least after 1990? |

Frank, Is that a normal TR or a 512TR? |

Every now and then the white TR Sonny Crocket drove on Miami Vice shows up for sale in the Ferrari Market Letter. |

Hey Howie! How are you my friend? I have seen one white over white 512 TR many years ago. I have seen one white over white Mondial Cab (see Peter Sweeneys site), and one white over white 308. They were all custom ordered from the factory. I think you will have more luck finding one of the VERY few white over tan or white over crema 512TRS that were made. Heck, even white series 1 TRS are hard to locate. I was driving my 308 this past weekend, and was passed by a white over tan 328 GTS on the highway. I must admit, it looked really nice! Hope you have a great holiday Howie, talk to you later. Mitchel |

Have any of you seen or heard of a white on white color combination on a 512TR? |
