'''Luigi's''' (known as '''Luigip''' in Japan) is a sponsor that appears in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]''. Although it is unclear what the sponsor does, it appears to have some relation to [[Luigi]]. The logo consists of the name written in a red font on a yellow background. The Japanese version is based on the logo of {{wp|Agip}}, which was a major {{wp|Formula One|Formula 1}} advertiser at the time, using the same font and color scheme. The background is yellow with the company name written on it in a black font with lines through the middle of the letters, with the dot of the second "I" lacking the line and being colored red. on the left of the text is a stylised version of Luigi's eyes, nose and moustache in black within a square outline with rounded corners. The reference in both the name and logo was removed in the western versions presumably to prevent a lawsuit from Agip, although the Japanese logo was later adapted in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' into a new [[List of recurring sponsors in the Mario Kart series#Luigi Grand Prix|Luigi Grand Prix]] logo. It is advertised by means of trackside banners and signs.
