Unlike all other types of vehicles, Bob-omb Cars can be fully destroyed for a short while. Bob-omb Cars will blow up when they collide with a player or are hit with almost any kind of item; the only items that can hit a Bob-omb Car without detonating it are [[Banana]]s and [[Fake Item Box]]es. | | [[File:MKDDBombCarModel.png|thumb|left|100px|''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'' model]] |

Official Nintendo Player's Guide. Page 41.</ref> is an explosive vehicle resembling a [[Bob-omb]] found in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''. It is found in only three courses: [[GCN Mushroom Bridge|Mushroom Bridge]], [[Mushroom City]], and [[Moonview Highway]]. This variety of [[Car (obstacle)|car]] is found driving only on the main streets, not on shortcuts like the rest of the vehicles. In ''Mario Kart Wii'', Bob-omb Cars have windup keys on the back like actual Bob-ombs. |
|
| |
|
| The Bob-omb Car also bears a resemblance to the [[Mini Bomb Kart]], which appears in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]''.
| | Bob-omb Cars have also appeared in the ''Mario Kart Wii'' [[List of Mario Kart Wii tournaments|competitions]]. The competitions that they appeared in included September 2008 and May 2009's first competitions. |

|
| ==History==
| | Bob-omb Cars detonate when they are hit with an item or when a driver rams into them. Hitting a Bob-omb Car has the same effect as getting blown up by either a Bob-omb or a [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]]. Despite having a lit fuse, a Bob-omb Car never explodes on its own. |

| |
| Bomb-cars first appear in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', on [[GCN Mushroom Bridge|Mushroom Bridge]] and [[Mushroom City]]. Hitting a Bomb-car has the same effect as getting blown up by either a Bob-omb or a [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]], causing the player to lose their item. After exploding, Bomb-cars respawn from certain hidden passages. On Mushroom Bridge, Bomb-cars appear from the pipe shortcut's entrance. In Mushroom City, the Bomb-car comes out of the alleyway on the left when players go down the hill and onto the left when someone hits the existing bomb on the lower level, and in the "Do Not Enter" alleyway on the upper level. If the player attempts to block the Bomb-car from coming out multiple times, it will reprogram itself to come out in an area that will evade the player, assuming they do not move their [[kart]]. The Bomb-car is also invincible from blowing up within the first three seconds of its respawn. Despite having a lit fuse, a Bomb-car never explodes on its own.

| ====''Mario Kart Wii''====
| | Once a Bob-omb Car explodes, a new one will respawn onto the road. In ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'', Bob-omb Cars appear from certain hidden passages on certain racecourses, while in ''Mario Kart Wii'', they respawn in the location where they blew up. On the Mushroom Bridge pipe shortcut, the Bob-omb Car will come out of the entrance, when someone hits one of the existing bombs. In Mushroom City, the Bob-omb Car comes out of the alleyway on the left when players go down the hill and onto the left when someone hits one of the existing bombs on the lower level, and in the "Do Not Enter" alleyway on the upper level. If the player attempts to block the Bob-omb Car from coming out multiple times, the Bob-omb Car will reprogram itself to come out in an area that will evade the player, assuming they do not move their [[kart]]. The Bob-omb Car in ''Double Dash!!'' is also invincible from blowing up within the first three seconds of its respawn. |

| |
| Bob-omb Cars are obstacles in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''. They are encountered in [[Wii Moonview Highway|Moonview Highway]]. Their base has been simplified, and windup keys have been added on the backs of these cars to resemble actual Bob-ombs. Unlike in ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'', they respawn on the track itself, and they can now blow up immediately after respawning. If a player hits a Bob-omb Car, they will lose their item. Bob-omb Cars also appeared on {{classic-link|N64|Skyscraper}} in the first September 2008 tournament, and on [[Luigi Circuit (Mario Kart Wii)|Luigi Circuit]] in the first May 2009 tournament. In both cases, they all drove against the player and were the only obstacles for the player to evade. | |
|
| |
|
| ====''Mario Kart Tour''====
| | The Bob-omb Car bears a resemblance to the [[Mini Bomb Kart]], which appears in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]''. |
| Bob-omb Cars also appear in ''Mario Kart Tour'' on {{classic-link|GCN|Mushroom Bridge}} (though not in said course's ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' iteration), {{classic-link|Wii|Moonview Highway}}, and both courses' T variants. In this game, they have their original ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'' appearance but with windup keys like in their ''Mario Kart Wii'' appearance. If a player lands on top of a Bob-omb Car, they can perform a [[Jump Boost|trick]]. This detonates the Bob-omb Car without hurting the racer in question.
| |
| | |
| ====''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''====
| |
| [[File:BombCar model.png|thumb|left|160px|Model from ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'']] | |
| Bob-omb Cars also appear in {{classic|Wii|Moonview Highway}} in Wave 5 of the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]'' for ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', using their ''Mario Kart Tour'' appearance with reflections on their sides.<ref>{{cite|language=ja|author=任天堂ホームページ|date=July 6, 2023|url=youtu.be/qMYKju7c384|title=Wii ムーンリッジ&ハイウェイ|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=July 7, 2023}}</ref> In this version, Bob-omb Cars can only be found in the right lane going against the player. If a player uses a [[Boo]] item, they can pass right through Bob-omb Cars without detonating them.
| |
| | |
| Prior to the Bob-omb Cars' inclusion in the Booster Course Pass, a model for the Bob-omb Car existed within the game files of ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', though it was removed in the 2.0.0 update. Unlike the Bob-omb Cars in the DLC, this Bob-omb Car was based on the design from ''Mario Kart Wii''.<ref>{{cite|url=tcrf.net/Mario_Kart_8_Deluxe#Unused_Models|title=''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''/Unused Models|publisher=The Cutting Room Floor|accessdate=June 27, 2024}}</ref>
