Nintendo builds real-life 'Mario Karts', drives to motor show - video
Published Nov 18 2011, 11:53 GMT | By Matthew Reynolds
The gaming company collaborated with West Coast Customs to create two life-sized karts and presented them at last week's LA Auto Show, according to The Verge.
The full-size Mario Kart with hand glider and Bumble Bee kart also double as drivable electric cars.
Mario Kart 7, out December 2 in Europe, will feature a new first-person driving mode playable with motion-controls and a trick system similar to Mario Kart Wii.
Metal Mario and Lakitu will be added as playable characters, while StreetPass will automatically share ghost data with other players.

Nick Williams didn't know you can adjust it. Im sure some people are ok with it but I have heard a lot of people complain about it and return it so can't be good for nintendo.
