The Zimmer Golden Spirit was one of the most unique cars featured in Miami Vice. There was nothing else like it on the road at the time and it was built as a limited-edition coach. Zimmer Motorcars Corporation designed the car, founded by Paul Zimmer and Bob Zimmer. The unique design of the car echoed back to 1930s luxury cars (via The Mustang Source).

The interesting thing about the Zimmer Golden Spirit was that it was based on the Mustang platform. To see a car that looked like this based on such a simple design as the Mustang was a marvel of engineering. It also shows how diverse the vehicle lineup on Miami Vice was and how it pioneered network television at the time.
