I am moving this from the HELP forum to the Southeast Forum (Florida)
....if you like you may also post in the General sections C5/C6/C7 to see if you find anyone there who can assist you. I am a bit North of the areas you are looking at however there are many members in S FL who will gladly help you out.

Based on the dates you listed your about a year away from your trip here. When your a few weeks from being here might be a better time to inquire.

Willkommen!

I think Europeans don't get a sense of scale about the distances in the U.S., so be careful how you schedule. One end of Florida to the other is like driving from Hamburg to München.

I think you'll definitely want to see the Florida Keys. Key West is a great drinking and partying destination, but it is a long drive. There is some great diving and fishing out there too.

If you're auto racing fans, Sebring and Daytona are a must see even if there is no racing going on at the time.

If you're into gambling, Florida has casinos, horse racing and greyhound racing.

That is correct it's called the "Revs Institute". They estimate that collection to be worth more than $500,000,000. They have Porsche's there that Porsche themselves don't have.
