Bruiser

The Bruiser (known as Growlster in Europe and Oceania) is a kart body part that can be unlocked with the Peach Parasol in Mario Kart 7. It resembles a vintage roadster, and offers a speed and weight boost, while its acceleration and handling are hindered. The Bruiser is tied with the B Dasher, Blue Seven, and Zucchini for having the highest speed of any kart body, but it's also tied with the Bumble V and Barrel Train for having the lowest handling of all kart bodies, and it's the fastest kart body to have a positive mini-turbo boost. It has the same engine noise as the B Dasher, albeit lower-pitched.

CPU Shy Guy can occasionally be seen driving in this body with the Sponge tires and the Beast Glider.

Toad and Wario can occasionally be seen driving in this body with the Standard tires and the Beast Glider.

Mario and Luigi can occasionally be seen driving in this body with the Mushroom tires and the Beast Glider.

The Bruiser also appears as a trophy in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, driven by Wario.
