Goofs:

Continuity: During the race between the SLR and the Diablo Roadster. The shot of the Shifter is actually a 6 speed Gear lever out of a Gallardo (Diablo is a 5 speed), when the the wheel of the Gauge cluster shown is actually from a 2004+ Murcielago with E-gear (most likely the Murcielago Roadster).

Quotes:

[first lines]
Natasha Martin: There are cars that get you from point A to point B. And then there are cars that get you from point A to point B really fast. Fast cars cost big money, and with millions of dollars at stake, there are people who'll do anything to win. People who take risks and never play it safe.

redline not maybe flatline

Okay so I went into this movie not really expecting much I figured an action flick similar to The Fast and the Furious. Some nice cars some nice girls somewhat of a decent plot. Unfortunately I would have to say that this was probably the worst movie I have seen this year. Don't get me wrong the cars were nice and the girls were OK but the way they put the movie together was just plain crappy to put it nicely. The story just never made you care about the cast and the movie seemed just pieced together. So overall this movie was not the worst thing ever by far but if your looking for a movie to go to this weekend I would pass on this one for now.
