Other mistake: When Mike rams up the backside of the challenger, the girl driving the car loses control and turns hard towards the left, the front tires aren't pointing forward down the road so there was no way she would have recovered from this. In the following shot after her closeup she's driving straight. (01:33:40)
Death Proof (2007)
1 other mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Quentin Tarantino
Starring: Kurt Russell, Rosario Dawson, Vanessa Ferlito, Zoe Bell
Continuity mistake: The shape and width of the scar on Stuntman Mike's face slightly varies between the scenes (from thin in the shot where he is pouring some eye drops into his eyes, to almost invisible during the scene at the parking lot in front of the shop in Lebanon, Tennessee, and wide during the final rush).

Suggested correction: This is untrue. The movie is out of sequence, like the reels were put together wrong in an old Grindhouse Theater. The car also changes when his scar is different if you pay attention. This whole movie also takes place in the wrong order of the double feature according to the storyline. This was NOT a mistake but done on purpose and slides to this in the making of book.
Dov: So is it Shawna and the girls at lake house this weekend?
Shanna: Shawna?
Dov: Awww fuck, I didn.
Shanna: No. Now there is one thing every girl in the whole world whose name is Shanna has in common with each other - we all hate the name Shawna. And we really hate when people call us Shawna. Remember it's Shanna banana not Shawna banawna.
Trivia: When Stuntman Mike's car goes flying after running over the first car, you can hear the Wilhelm scream.
Question: When Abby is in the store, Lee calls her. What is Abby's ringtone? It sounds familiar, but I can't place it.
Answer: The tune is called "Twisted Nerve" by Bernard Herrmann. It sounds familiar because in one of Quentin Tarantino's earlier films "Kill Bill", Daryl Hannah's character was whistling it before attempting to murder Uma Thurman's character in her sleep.
Answer: That song is actually used in a couple different scenes of Kill Bill.
