Continuity mistake: Tony Trihull appears when Finn McMissile begins chasing Professor Z. It also shows when Tony uses his magnet.

Continuity mistake: When the cars are zigzagging in the Tokyo track, there is a shot where three specialists are talking about McQueen and they show him on the track in split screens (air and ground shot). In the air shot, he has a red car behind and then a green one following. But in the ground shot, the red car is gone and the green is behind McQueen, even though you can see the red one in the air shot at the same time.

Continuity mistake: When the other tow truck asks how Holly Shiftwell's grandfather is, you can see that his Ivan symbol has a red background, and then a few minutes later you can see that Mater's Ivan symbol is white, and a few minutes later there is no background at all on Mater's symbol.
