in case you ain't able to recognize it, it's a Suzuki Jimny Mario Kart DS Limited Edition. Only one was made, and yes, it's official. Nintendo of Europe gave it away in a draw on the german Games Convention this year :o

Someone in the school parking lot at my school has a limited edition Tomb Raider Jeep. Not my favorite game or truck, but I found it cool.
If I get it for free yeah I'll drive it around!

Of course :) I dont think anyone will say no to a free car even if it has ads hehe. But, I would probly remove the ads if I was allowed to. Is this car a promo car or a contest car? If contest it should be fine to remove the ads.

contest, yes, the owner is the owner and of course he can do whatever he wants with it, including just selling it which would be the best way to go if you don't want to drive around with the ads...

I wouldn't mind driving around with the ads. Let everybody know that I'm a fanboy :-P.
It's hard to make out the ads though... anybody know what they are?

If I won that thing I would most likely sell it. I wouldn't really want to drive around with ads on and I already have a car, so why not get something that I would really want or just keep the money from selling it.

Think of all the ladies you'd get cruising down the boulevard in your Mario Kart Suzuki. I'd imagine they'd be swarming around you like flies.

They would if you handled it right. If I won, though, selling would be the best route--at this point in time. A few years down the road, and I might be able to keep something like that. But for now, I would be happy with making the best topic ever in the Buying & Selling forum.

Ahhh....
Now that, I can make out.
Looks really neat.
I feel compelled to ask the Mr. Plow question:
"Do you come with the car"

So who here would buy that? Who is that hardcore a collector of all things Mario Kart? Some talk of selling it but who would be the market for such a vehicle?
But hey if you got it for free and sold it for $10 well I guess thats $10 more you'd have. Oh well.

I'd like that, if I had someplace to store it, that is!
Games are games, and collecting is collecting! :D

I sell that faster than stink swarms shit.
Oh I imagine it would decently drift until it rolls over because it's a mini SUV with high ground clearence. Top heavy = drift and die.

Id scratch out the company logo and spray paint the competitions name just to mess with them.
