In Pixar's Cars 2, which character is secretly a British spy?

In Pixar's Cars 2, Finn McMissile is secretly a British spy.

Finn McMissile is an intelligence agent voiced by Michael Caine. He investigates a conspiracy connected with the World Grand Prix and Allinol, bringing espionage, surveillance, and gadget-driven action into the Cars universe.

The character is designed as a tribute to classic British spy films. His Aston Martin-inspired appearance, formal manner, and specialized equipment recall the visual language of secret-agent stories without making him a direct version of any one human character.

Finn works with Holley Shiftwell, another spy who is stationed in Tokyo. Finn should not be confused with Mater, whose accidental involvement in the investigation creates much of the film's comedy. Cars 2 was the second feature film in the franchise.
