By Gary Grant, Autoblog.com - Gamers of all ages love the Mario Kart video game franchise, as Nintendo's little pizza guy drives all over in his fanciful kart complete with a para-sail to help with those pesky cliffs. Last year, the folks at Nintendo partnered with West Coast Customs to create a pair of life size karts, one for Mario and the other for his brother Luigi.
Created as part of a marketing campaign for the launch of Mario Kart 7, Mari's machine was destined to go to one lucky gamer's garage. Clarksville, Tennessee resident, Nate Stehley won the monthly Epic Reward Giveaway, which has landed the kart, complete with glider wing, in his driveway.
Luigi's Bumble V Kart remains on display in Nintendo's Redmond, Washington headquarters.
