Robert Culp and Bill Cosby are a pair of US intelligence agents posing as a tennis pro, and his coach goes on secret missions around the world. Not only are the cars amazing, but unlike many shows of the day, almost all of I-Spy was filmed on location around the world. In addition to locations like Japan, Mexico, and Spain, the show was filled with great actors like George Takei, Martin Landau, Boris Karloff, and Peter Lawford.

The international filming means that the show is filled with classic cars from Europe, Asia, and the USA.

Before the films with Tom Cruise, the elite covert operations unit known as the Impossible Mission Force or IMF carried out highly sensitive missions around the world. Filmed using the contemporary cars of the day the show is filled with unique classic cars and even wild custom go-kart that they use to escape in season 5, episode 8 titled Decoy.

With series regulars like Peter Graves, Martin Landau, Barbara Bain, Leonard Nimoy, and my personal favorite Greg Morris the show had an all-star cast and top guest stars. But the real stars are the cars which range from classic Fords to vintage BMWs and Volvos.
