See if you can spot these hidden gems on your next outing:<\/p>\n<p><strong><span class=\"caps\">NOD<\/span> TO <span class=\"caps\">THE<\/span> <span class=\"caps\">NUMBER<\/span><\/strong> &mdash; The number A113, which refers to John Lasseter, Brad Bird, Pete Docter and Andrew Stanton&rsquo;s former classroom at CalArts, makes an appearance in every Pixar film. In &ldquo;Cars 2,&rdquo; you can see A113 in two places: as the number on Mater&rsquo;s license plate, and as the number on Siddeley the spy jet&rsquo;s tail fin.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span class=\"caps\">THAT<\/span>&rsquo;S <span class=\"caps\">INCREDIBLE<\/span><\/strong> &mdash; In Radiator Springs, Mater drives past the Radiator Springs Drive-in, and the movie displayed on the marquee is &ldquo;The Incredimobiles,&rdquo; a &ldquo;car-ified&rdquo; version of Disney-Pixar&rsquo;s 2004 film &ldquo;The Incredibles.&rdquo; <\/p>\n<p><strong><span class=\"caps\">TAKE<\/span> <span class=\"caps\">OUT<\/span> OR <span class=\"caps\">DELIVERY<\/span><\/strong> &mdash;The Pizza Planet Truck, first seen in the original &ldquo;Toy Story,&rdquo; makes an appearance in almost every Pixar film. It actually appears twice in &ldquo;Cars 2&rdquo;&mdash;as a guest on the &ldquo;Tire Talk&rdquo; television show just before the Mel Dorado show comes on, and in the Radiator Springs epilogue as a race spectator when the jet-propelled Mater flies by. &middot; <\/p>\n<p><strong><span class=\"caps\">SNEAK<\/span> <span class=\"caps\">PEEK<\/span><\/strong> &mdash; In every Pixar film, savvy viewers can catch a sneak peek at a tease for the studio&rsquo;s next release. In &ldquo;Cars 2,&rdquo; there is a &ldquo;car-ified&rdquo; version of prominent figures from 2012&rsquo;s &ldquo;Brave.&rdquo; When the Lemons crash into Ye Left Turn Inn in the London sequence, look closely! &middot; <span class=\"caps\">DINNER<\/span> IS <span class=\"caps\">SERVED<\/span> &mdash; In Paris, there is a restaurant called Gastow&rsquo;s, a &ldquo;car-ified&rdquo; reference to Gusteau&rsquo;s, the gourmet Parisian restaurant from &ldquo;Ratatouille.&rdquo; <\/p>\n<p><strong><span class=\"caps\">MAKING<\/span> <span class=\"caps\">THE<\/span> <span class=\"caps\">ROUNDS<\/span><\/strong> &mdash; In the London leg of the World Grand Prix, a banner advertising &ldquo;Lassetyre&rdquo; tires is visible, a reference to director John Lasseter. <\/p>\n<p><strong><span class=\"caps\">FROM<\/span> V8 TO V9<\/strong> &mdash; The exterior of Flo&rsquo;s V8 Caf\u00e9 has been extended in &ldquo;Cars 2&rdquo; to accommodate the set for &ldquo;Flo&rsquo;s Cooking Show,&rdquo; which was to be featured in a segment of the film that was eventually cut. However, you can still catch a glimpse of the extension when the caf\u00e9 is viewed from the outside. <\/p>\n<p><strong>A <span class=\"caps\">STAR<\/span> IS <span class=\"caps\">BORN<\/span><\/strong> &mdash; &ldquo;Cars 2&rdquo; director John Lasseter voices two characters in the film: John Lassetire, Jeff Gorvette&rsquo;s crew chief, and a gambling car in the Porto Corsa Casino. His Porto Corsa line: &ldquo;C&rsquo;mon, fuzzy dice!&rdquo; <\/p>\n<p><strong><span class=\"caps\">LEWIS<\/span> <span class=\"caps\">LENDS<\/span> A <span class=\"caps\">LINE<\/span><\/strong> &mdash; &ldquo;Cars 2&rdquo; co-director Brad Lewis performs the voice of Tubbs Pacer, one of the Lemonheads featured in Porto Corsa.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;-<\/p>\n<p>For more <em>Cars 2<\/em> Easter Eggs, check out&nbsp;Pixar&#8217;s full list at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.slashfilm.com\/cars-2-easter-eggs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">SlashFilm<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p><em>Found an unlisted Easter Egg?
