Continuity mistake: Before the race in Thomasville Cruz has the 20 number only on her right side but later she has the number also on her left.
Cars 3 (2017)
Directed by: Brian Fee
Starring: Owen Wilson, Kerry Washington, Nathan Fillion, Armie Hammer
Revealing mistake: When Lightning, Cal and Bobby enter the pit row, the King's model is merged with the one from the crew chief next to him. (00:03:05)
Continuity mistake: When McQueen almost hits Smokey he stops few inches away from him, but in the next shot that distance increases notably.
Suggested correction: It's set in McQueen's perspective.
It's not in McQueen's perspective. We see both cars from a different angle, and they are further apart than the initial stopping point.
Trivia: When Cruise brings the mobile simulator to the beach, it makes the classic Apple startup sound that Mac computers make. Apple founder Steve Jobs funded Pixar in its early days and was a major reason for the company's success. The same sound can also be heard in Pixar's Wall-E.
Trivia: This is Nathan Fillion's second Pixar film; he was also Johnny Worthington in Monsters University.
Natalie Certain: Storm's chances of winning are 95.2%.
Lightning McQueen: I decide when I'm done.
Smokey Yunick: You will never be the racer you once were. Accept it.
