I remember reading the Popular Mechanics' on the Pantera/Testarossa stunt car as part of their feature on the 'Cars of Miami Vice' way back when. It also spoke about the simple reason why they chose white, there was a real black Testarossa in a prior episode didn't show up well in a night shoot. I guess Michael Mann liked filming in the dark

Garth's Banzai Runner web page has the reference to the 1987 Popular Mechanics feature with pictures.
