Other mistake: Near the end of the movie, Martin Lawrence and Will Smith are in a Porsche catching the bad guy. The whole time Martin Lawrence is driving, BOTH hands are on the steering wheel. Now most of us know that Porsches have a manual transmission, so shouldn't Martin Lawrence be switching gears during the chase?

Suggested correction: Hopefully someone else can confirm, but it appears that from around 1995 onwards some Porsche models came with an optional 'tiptronic' automatic transmission.
It was Michael Bay's own personal car used in the movie, a manual transmission model. But even if we do not use "outside" knowledge, we see the gear stick in the movie at the very beginning when Martin Lawrence spills fries all over it. So no, despite what the correction says, it's not an automatic version.
