Blue Car

A Blue Car is an automated obstacle found in Mario Kart: Double Dash!! and Mario Kart Wii. It is found only in Mushroom Bridge of the Flower Cup, and in Mushroom City of the Star Cup in Double Dash!!. They reappeared in Mario Kart Wii, but only in Moonview Highway. They are found driving on their own at a relatively low speed on the main streets. They are not found driving on shortcuts so it is sometimes safer to take a shortcut than to get hit.

The effect of hitting a Blue Car has the same effect as hitting a banana in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, simply leading to a wipe-out. Getting hit by it in Mario Kart Wii causes drivers to flip over or get flattened momentarily. A common trouble is to get stuck while wiping out on the car and then wiping out yet again. They can not be killed or eliminated; they can be harmed only by hitting it while using a Star, by running it over with a Chain Chomp (MKDD), by hitting it with a Bowser Shell (MKDD), or by running into it while using a Bullet Bill or Mega Mushroom (MKWii).



Trivia

 * The Blue Car and the Red Car in Mario Kart: Double Dash!! are virtually the same, except different colors.
