Yes it is. When Joel McHale enters John Olivers car you can clearly tell it's a Smart. I was actually shocked nothing witty was said about the size or something.

Anyhow, feel free to mention where you have seen Smart's in popular culture. (movies, television, etc..) The only other place I have seen a Smart is in the Da Vinci Code
There's another thread with this reference in it. Here's the link to the show. The Smart appears at 14.40 into the show.

NBC Video Rewind

Sorry to repeat, saw the second post when I returned from reading the first and I had already pulled the link and the time. Guess it comes from being a twin - do everything twice.

I have watched this movie three times now, and it wasn't until the last time I realized that in the fight sequence in the streets of New York, near the end, there are about 10 smarts in the traffic on the streets. Looks like most are 450's, and they are all yellow.

I don't remember where it was. We had watched the season premier episode of Bones, and left the TV on. I was doing a word search puzzle, and looked up and saw the smart. I yelled at my wife who was just entering the room, she grabbed the remote and re-winded the dvr a little and stopped it, Yep a red and black. Since I wasn't really watching the show I don't know for sure, but I think it was about the half way point.

A mid-season replacement show "The Unusuals" featured a smart 451 in one of it's episodes about an elderly gent who kept getting arrested. The smart sequence was when he 'hijacked' a pizza delivery car (smart) and led the cops on a 'slow speed' chase at about 10 mph. It was actually pretty funny . . . the whole show was funny; now that I think about it.

Since when?

I watched almost every second of the new Fringe episode...It's one of my favorite Faux Network shows!

I watched Michael Moores movie "Sicko" today and while filming in France, of all places, I noticed at least two smarts. A Silver/Silver one parked curbside and a Black one passing by in the background.

But as I said, it WAS France......you would EXPECT to see them there, right?


btw, I watched "Community" last night and saw the scene with the smart. They made it out to be very cramped with two people inside. Not only was I NOT impressed with that, the show itself didn't strike me as one that will be around long. It was like "Caddyshack" with a college setting instead of a golf course, ONLY NOT FUNNY!
