Miami Vice's Enduring Legacy | GTA: Vice City, Hotline Miami, Drive, Outrun, Synthwave & More

What do Grand Theft Auto, Ferraris, designer stubble, outrun, synthwave, retrowave, and the ‘80s renaissance have in common? Two words: Miami Vice. This stylish police procedural spread its vast influence echoes across our culture, entertainment and civilization for four decades, including the many shows, movies and games it inspired over the years, such as Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Hotline Miami, Drive (2011), Burn Notice, and countless other works. And while most only know it for white suits and funny haircuts, the show is much more than it initially lets on. And unlike most TV series, this work of fiction helped transform the Miami-Dade area from a crime-addled slum to a booming party town, famous for its music and tourism scene.
