Whenever there’s a top secret double-agent spy action hero, he drives a manly car. He drives KIT. He drives a Ferrari. He drives an Audi. He drives a Bat Mobile. He drives a … a Vespa? If you’re Maxwell Smart in “Get Smart”, that’s right. Agent Smart drives a Vespa.
Steve Carrell stars as Agent Maxwell Smart in the upcoming comedy, “Get Smart”, opposite Anne Hathaway, which premieres June 20, 2008. But in spoof comedy fashion, this action hero doesn’t drive just any old vehicle - he’s rockin’ the Vespa.
Vespa has been a part of “Get Smart” since it was a television show in the 1960s. In fact, the Alpha-Wallis Vespa was developed specifically for Maxwell Smart, which could fly and scope things out under water.
To promote both the movie and the scooter company, they have paired with Subway in an instant-win sweepstakes. Ten free Vespas will be given away as grand prizes. So go get your 5, 5-dollar, 5-dollar footlooooong, and maybe you’ll get a Vespa while you’re there.
