The Spiny Cup is a cup that appears in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe as part of the Booster Course Pass DLC. It is the second of two cups in the sixth and final wave of the DLC, being released alongside the Acorn Cup, the twelfth and final cup of the pass overall, and the twenty-fourth and final cup of the game overall. The emblem of the cup is a Spiny Shell, making the Spiny Cup one of the two cups in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe to have a kind of shell as its emblem, alongside the Shell Cup. Like most cups in the pass, it only features classic courses, ending with a Bowser's Castle and Rainbow Road course similarly to every Special Cup since Mario Kart: Super Circuit, making it the only classic course cup to do so. It is one of the two cups to not end on a course without a prefix or a Mario Kart Tour course, the other being the Moon Cup, and one of the two cups to only feature one prefix-less or Mario Kart Tour course, the other being the Rock Cup. It is also the only cup in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe to have a course originally from Super Mario Kart that is not the second course in the cup. The decorations on this cup's trophy are purple.

Trivia
- A cup based on the Spiny Shell was originally going to appear as DLC in the original Mario Kart 8 for the Wii U, but that cup was replaced for unknown reasons by the Bell Cup in the final game.
- In the game's data, the filenames for Tour Madrid Drive, 3DS Rosalina's Ice World, and SNES Bowser Castle 3 all imply that they were originally set for different placements in the pass (the first course of the Feather Cup, the third course of the Spiny Cup (which originally did not have a prefix assigned to it), and the third course of the Cherry Cup respectively). Internal data also suggests that Tour Athens Dash (which is the first course of the Feather Cup in the final version) was intended to be the first course of this cup. The second course also originally had the "GCN" prefix attached to it, but was later replaced by Wii Daisy Circuit (which is the third course of the Acorn Cup in the final version) instead.
