Contemporary #synthwave crystallizes around the central trope of a cool heartbroken loner driving an 80’s sports car (Lamborghini Countach or Ferrari F40) at night baked in blue and pink neon lights, but what actual 80’s work of fiction sparked this image? Is it just Miami Vice or was it wider spread even then?

•But that iconic neon light look was really most exemplified with Miami Vice and other Michael Mann productions. You could see some influence in some other shows like Crime Story, but ... oh wait. I just looked up Crime Story and ... yup, it was a Michael Mann production.
