[Tigers] Get Smart Tiger cameo

[Chris Thompson]

Get Smart may well be one of the reasons our cars get no respect.  It 
would have been different if James Bond had driven a Tiger.  The Tiger 
was (mistakenly) used as the "spoof" of a sports car in the *spoof* of 
the James Bond genre that was Get Smart.

But I always liked Get Smart better than James Bond anyway, so I'm cool 
with that ;-)

Regards,

Chris
