Continuity mistake: When Brian is trying to get rid of that ESD-System (that thing which is shot by the cop to break down the electronics system of the car), the bad guy is holding him by his shirt in a much different way than he does in the close-ups. (01:16:40)

Continuity mistake: In the car chase scene towards the end of the film, Brian is not wearing his seat belt in close-ups, yet in the outside-the-car shots, the driver has his seat belt on. (01:17:00)

Continuity mistake: When the Evo and the Eclipse enter the highway, after Brian and Rome loaded up their cars with the bags of money, we see Brian change gear. His shoes are dirty in one shot and clean in the next. (01:18:25)

Continuity mistake: When the Evo and the Eclipse enter the highway, after Brian and Rome loaded up their cars with the bags of money, Brian shifts into third gear and later fourth gear. The Evo has the aftermarket Momo pedals installed, but after the Evo gets shot with the ESD from the helicopter, and when Brian tries to hold down the gas with his foot, the pedals in the Evo are the stock ones. (01:18:30)

Revealing mistake: When Suki and Tej are being booked for speeding when they took Brian's and Roman's cars, the police officer next to them should be writing on his notepad, but instead the words are already written and he is just moving the pen over these words. (01:24:25)

Continuity mistake: Close to the end, when Brian and Roman are driving to meet Verone in Roman's car, Roman has his arm out the window, yet in the following shot its not out the window. (01:24:55)

Visible crew/equipment: Near the end, in a shot of Monica and the baddie (just before they get onto the boat) standing beside a large vehicle, the camera is quite close and then it tracks backwards. The reflection of the legs of the steadicam operator walking backwards as he moves the camera, is seen at the side of the car. (01:27:50)

Continuity mistake: The way Eva Mendez holds the shotgun at the end changes depending on the shot. Note her fingers on the barrel. (01:32:50)

Factual error: In the final fight scene, when Carter tries to pick up the shotgun to shoot again, the slide/chamber is closed. When they cut in the next shot with Monica holding the gun on Carter, the slide/chamber is open. You can't see the chamber but you can see that the slide is back further towards the stock of the weapon. The chamber has to be secured to fire. (01:36:40)

Revealing mistake: When Brian and Rome are going to rescue Monica, they are talking the whole time as to what next to do. We see several edited-in backgrounds at every close-up, and in one of Rome's close-ups we see a road pointing straight at the car. In other close-ups of Rome from the same angle, we see a river. The road that can be seen in the one close-up is not possible.

Other mistake: When Brian and Roman are driving to the airfield, Brian thanks Tej for helping them escape from Miami P.D. Brian is talking to Tej with a walkie talkie, but Tej is on a cell phone.

Deliberate mistake: When Brian and Bilkins are at the demolition derby, Roman wins and gets out of his car. As he scans the crowd, he sees Brian. When we see Brian the logo on his shirt has a 3D effect to it that goes back and to the left. In all other shots of that logo, the effect goes back and to the right. This shot is reversed.

Revealing mistake: When Brian does the stunt where he drives in reverse, he rips a handbrake that isn't even there, only doing the gesture.

Deliberate mistake: The relay drag race takes much longer to complete than it should. Each leg is a quarter mile going and back, the cars involved should be able to make their runs in much less time than is shown. Brian even tells Roman that the Yenko (the blue Camaro) can do a quarter mile in 5 seconds flat, but it still takes ten times that long to complete the entire run.

Continuity mistake: When Brian Roman arrive at Tej's garage after meeting with Verone at the club, Tej, Jimmy, and Suki are playing cards. There is a shot of them at the table and then an overshot view showing clear solo cups which appears to have beer in them. But after Brian gives Suki a kiss, then next shots show red solo cups on the table, not clear.

Continuity mistake: When Verone and Monica meet up with Brian before they get on the boat, in the background one of Verone's men walks up the dock and stops at the beginning. When Verone tells one of his men to put Monica on the boat, next shot cuts to Brain, and back to Verone. The guy at the beginning of the dock is not there but midway down the dock. It then shows him walking up again when Verone points the shotgun at Monica.

Continuity mistake: At the end of the movie, Roman's shirt changes between 3 different shades of blue. Light color when talking with Brian about Verone, then changes when talking with Bilkins, and finally as Brian and him are walking away talking about opening a garage together.

Other mistake: In the first race scene when the Skyline jumps the Supra, the Supra is doing around 120 mph, and when the Skyline jumps it the speedometer shows approximately 160 kph or about 96 mph, so it would have been unable to make the jump.

Factual error: When Brian pulls into the impound lot at about 70 - 80 mph, he smashed down a pole to get through a gate, you see him crunch the front of his car, but what he also crunched was his front mounted intercooler, thus restricting or even stopping airflow to the engine, no air equals no combustion, so the engine should have stalled or stuttered and eventually shut off, either way, his car was toast and he shouldn't have been able to get back on the highway.

Roman: Fuentes in with Verone, Markham trying to blow our cover and we got two wired cars that are better than that ankle braclet of mine. I tell you, bro. You let your man Markham do that shit again in front of Verone, that's gonna be our ass.
Brian O'Conner: I know man, it's getting thick real quick. We need some way out through some kind of exit strategy.
Roman: Exit strategy, huh?
Brian O'Conner: Yeah.
Roman: I like the way that sounds. What you got in mind?
Brian O'Conner: I don't know man, but we need two more cars.

More quotes from 2 Fast 2 Furious

Trivia: There is one error in the Tag Team race: the street is not that long. (I should know, because my dad works on that street.) In the movie, it took a little while to finish getting down that street which was unbelievable, especially at the speed they were going. In reality, if you were to race down that street from where they started (without turning back) it would take you an estimated eight to nine seconds.
