Mario Kart 8's Mercedes Benz DLC, previously only announced for Japan, is apparently being imported. Nintendo of America announced it will be releasing this summer.

NoA tweeted the news, along with the same screenshot that accompanied the Japanese release. The Mercedes Benz GLA kart will be available for free in Japan, and presumably here as well. It's part of a co-marketing deal between Nintendo and Mercedes, and in Japan the companies released a cross-promotional ad with an oddly muscular Mario.

  Here's hoping this comes to Europe as well. Should not leave a region out of the fun that the two other regions are getting. :-)
