post any random Mario thought on your mind

Isn't it called the Wario Bike because it's Wario's Bike? I don't think that it has anything to do with looking like him.

In Double Dash the Wario Car was literally Wario's car, it didn't really look like him either. It's said that the car had to be tuned down to become a viable kart, I guess that the same could be said for the Wario bike?

Still, the odd part of the story is that the Wario Car is a speed focused vehicle, which is not a strong point for the Wario Bike.

Another oddity involves the Offroader, where contrary to its name, its off-road is barely above average, and even when used by Dry Bowser, it can't drift on any kind of normal off-road terrain. In fact, the only large vehicles that can drift on normal off-road are the Phantom and Dry Bowser's Wario Bike.
 
For the Off-roader, that's where relativity matters. For a large kart, it's Off-Road is one of the stronger Large kart stats.
 
I wish the clown car was a vehicle we could use. I don't mean like that clown car esque kart from Mario kart DS or anything but the actual clown car. It would just hover above the ground like bowser jr does in smash.
 
That wouldn't really work with wheel customisation though. But I do want to see the Clown Car in Mario Kart.

We also had the Clown Car from Mario Kart 7, which looked more like the clown car than the Hurricane did. It was pretty cool

They could also use Junior Clown Car from smash and make it a kart, since they gave it it's own wheel mode with exhausts and everything.
 
The Hurricane is one of my favorite vehicles though :/

Still, the Offroader's off-road stat is not good enough for off-road drifting, which pretty much means that using off-road shortcuts without a mushroom or star is a bad idea.

Just make it a pre-set kart you can't change

Remember though, the karts in MKW were built specifically for certain size groups, whereas the ones from MKDS/8 weren't, so that's not really a fair example.

It should be noted, however, that the body frame sizes of the Mario Kart 8 vehicles are affected by which character is using them.

As shown on the above screenshot, Rosalina's Biddybuggy is bigger than Baby Rosalina's Biddybuggy. You don't get anything like that in Mario Kart DS, where you can see heavy characters using karts that are just too small for them to use.

While the Mushmellow can handle Toad's size, you might as well put it out of its misery if Bowser tries to use it.
