On August 27, the Mercedes Car DLC will be available in the U.S., the same time it will be available in Japan. The Mercedes DLC marks the 22^nd anniversary of Super Mario Kart.

What kinds of Mercedes car will be available? According to IGN, there's the 1957 300 SL Roadster sports car, the 1934 W 25 Silver Arrow formula racing car and the new compact SUV, the GLA.
