Grosse Pointe Blank

Factual error: John Cusack arrives in Grosse Pointe, Michigan and drives through the downtown area while we hear Minnie Driver's voice-over. He not only passes some storefronts at least twice, but one of the storefronts has a large yellow and brown awning reading "Monrovia Beauty Supply," which is located in Monrovia, California.

Factual error: In the scene at the Cuppa Joe, it's a span of 3 minutes and 5 seconds from when the server takes their order to when she's walking back to the table with the food - that's not enough time for an order of pancakes to even finish cooking, let alone for all of those ingredients to be cooked and plated.

Questions

Question: Grocer contacts the G-men to tell them that Blank is arriving by plane. Is that his own car he is driving around town, or are we to assume that he rented a car exactly like his own? If it is his car, how did it get there if he flew?

Answer: Given that Blank and Grocer both drive identical black Lincoln Town Cars throughout the film for some reason, that would be a reasonable assumption that they would also hire the same car model wherever they go.
