In a shocking twist, the upcoming film adaptation of Miami Vice '85, starring Austin Butler and Michael B. Jordan, has opted to use a white Ferrari Testarossa instead of the original black 1972 Ferrari Daytona Spyder convertible driven by Don Johnson's Sonny Crockett in the TV series. This change appears to be a strategic move to avoid potential legal issues, as the original Daytona Spyder was a replica built on a Corvette C3 chassis due to Ferrari North America's refusal to provide an authentic model for the show. A legal battle ensued between Ferrari and the show's replica builder, McBurnie Coachcraft, over trademark infringement and brand dilution. The dispute was eventually settled, with Ferrari donating two authentic Testarossas to the production under the condition that the fake Daytona be destroyed on national television. With Miami Vice '85 currently filming in New York and New Jersey, production will move to Miami once hurricane season is over. The movie is set to hit theaters, including IMAX, on May 19, 2028.
