![]() ![]() This plan fails, and Julia reprimands him. Tobey does not want Julia with him, and concocts a scheme to scare Julia out of the car by driving "like a complete maniac" through traffic at high speed. The pair have 45 hours to reach San Francisco before the race starts. As a condition, Ingram requires Julia to accompany Tobey, as he does not want to leave the car in the hands of an ex-con. Tobey hopes to get revenge for Pete by beating Dino in the race. He borrows Ingram's Mustang to enter the De Leon, a winner-takes-all exotic car race organized by the mysterious Monarch (Michael Keaton), who also hosts a live online talk show. Upon his release on parole, Tobey sets out to avenge Pete's death. The red Koenigsegg that Dino was driving cannot be found, and the police, faced with evidence of only two Koenigseggs at the scene, wrongly conclude that Tobey killed Pete, sentencing him to two years in prison. Dino disappears from the scene, while Tobey is arrested by the police. On the home stretch, realizing he is going to lose, Dino intentionally rams into Pete's car, sending it flying off of a bridge and killing Pete as it bursts into flames. He challenges them to race with his uncle's three Koenigsegg Agera R cars illegally imported from Europe. Dino offers to relinquish his entire share of the Mustang sale if Tobey wins, otherwise Tobey will have to forfeit his share. Jealous of Tobey's driving skills, Dino challenges Tobey and his young friend Pete (Harrison Gilbertson) to a race. Despite Dino's objections, Tobey takes the Mustang to a racetrack and reaches 234 mph on a straightaway, convincing Ingram to purchase it for $2.7 million. Tobey and Dino meet Julia (Imogen Poots), an English car broker whose client, Bill Ingram, wants to purchase the car if they can prove it will reach 230 mph, as Tobey claims. The completed Mustang is displayed for auction at a party in New York City. Dino estimates the car will sell for at least $2 million. After one such race, Tobey's former rival Dino Brewster (Dominic Cooper) convinces them to complete the build of a rare Ford Shelby Mustang worked on by the late Carroll Shelby, in exchange for 25% of the car's sales revenue. Struggling to make ends meet, he and his crew participate in street races after hours, using classic muscle cars restored at their shop. Tobey Marshall (Aaron Paul) is a former race car driver who owns his late father's garage, Marshall Performance Motors, in Mount Kisco, New York, where he and his friends tune performance cars. The movie grossed $203 million worldwide. After its release, the film received generally negative reviews, criticized for its direction, nonsensical story, and acting of the supporting cast, though some praise for Paul's acting.
