Plot hole: At the end of the film Shaw and Dom drive their cars onto the plane and the pilot says they are too heavy to take off, but Shaw's team consisted of an extra car, which the plane was clearly prepared to take off with.
Plot hole: There is not enough time for Dom's team to prep the cars for Europe that Parker brought at auction, adding winches and roll cages etc.
Plot hole: When they have to let Shaw walk out with the chip because he has Brian's family hostage, he walks past all those soldiers and drives out of the base. He tries to use his phone but the crew blocks all signals in the area so they can chase him. We cut back to everyone in the army base and the army have just disappeared, leaving it up to the team to chase Shaw down a runway alone. (01:39:30 - 01:40:50)
Chosen answer: The most logical answer would be that quite a lot of people liked the character Han. Since he dies at the end of "Tokyo Drift" the filmmakers probably came up with the idea of having the movie take place after all the other ones, so as to feature Han in more sequels.
