Honeycoupe

The Honeycoupe (also known as the Dragonetti in PAL versions) is a kart that appears in Mario Kart Wii. It is only used by heavyweight characters. It looks like an old Porsche.

Compared to the Flame Flyer, the Honeycoupe is a tad slower, but has slightly better acceleration. It also has a great drift and mini-turbo that almost rivals the Wild Wing's. Ironically, the Honeycoupe is actually heavier than the Flame Flyer (also heavier than the Wario Bike and Jetsetter), but it's lighter than the Offroader.

The bike counterpart for this kart is the Shooting Star.

 * The character emblem appears only on a tiny license plate on the back of the car between the exhaust pipes.
 * The Honeycoupe is one of the few large vehicles to have an above average drift and mini-turbo. It shares this attribute with the Shooting Star, Flame Flyer, and the Flame Runner.
