Plot

Half-brothers Andrew and Garret Foster operate as international car thieves, targeting high-end cars. They steal a rare Bugatti in transit after it is purchased at auction in France, unaware that the car was purchased by Marseille crime boss Jacomo Morier. Morier’s men capture them when they attempt to sell the car. They take them to Morier’s house, and Morier shows them his garage full of cars. He then attempts to shoot them, but to escape their punishment, the brothers offer to help Morier complete his collection of cars by stealing a rare Ferrari owned by ruthless tycoon and rival, Max Klemp. Morier agrees but sets the condition that the theft must be carried out within one week.

The brothers hurriedly recruit a team in Marseille to carry out the job, including Andrew’s girlfriend Stephanie and her pickpocket friend Devin. Andrew tells Garret that this will be his last job. They also have to cope with Morier’s cousin Laurent keeping tabs on their operation, as well as a pair of Interpol agents. Garret, who had recently been conned by a woman who pretended to fall in love with him, begins a relationship with Devin. For insurance, Morier’s men kidnap Stephanie in the Marseille marketplace. Andrew and Garret arrive in their flat and Devin tells them Stephanie has been taken. They head to Morier’s house to find Stephanie bound and gagged under a spinning car wheel, which Laurent threatens to lower onto Stephanie’s face. Andrew and Garret promise to do the job in order to save Stephanie.

When the day of the robbery comes the brothers put their plan into effect. Stephanie, locked in a room in Morier’s house, attempts to seduce Laurent and fails, although she manages to steal his key to the door and escapes. She sets off the house alarms and escapes with a shotgun to meet Andrew, Garret and their team at the door. Morier realises that the events that led up to this point have been part of an elaborate diversion to allow them to steal the rest of his own car collection. Morier realises what is happening as the gang are making their escape and he chases them to the docks. During their chase, Andrew proposes to Stephanie and she agrees to marry him. In a final confrontation, Morier is killed when his car is rammed into the water by a coach driven by Devin. Devin leaves, promising to call Garret.

The gang are later seen in Paris, deciding to plot their next job.
