    I was just watching the old movie "The Rock" and I noticed that when Cage takes the yellow 355 he puts it into 3rd gear and then peels out of the hotel with the tires spinning and smoking. I didnt think that was possible, I guess the movie directors didnt know that:) Just some random movie mistake information for you 355 guys.

    Good Catch ! I just watched the Scene in Slo-Mo.Perhaps Mr Cage learned how to Shift from Mr Gere (Lotus in Pretty Woman).

    DISCLAIMER: I only watch the 1st 20 minutes of P.W. ;)

    Thats a good spot:D I think thats down to the way the director cut the film. I bet there were quite a few gear change shots and he chose that one. We all know Cage is one of the cool dudes who has all the best ferraris;)
