It's very funny that this exists, because Mercedes-Benz paid money to advertise in a Wii U game. That'd be hilarious in itself, but then they also allowed the ad content to be transferred over to the inevitable rerelease.

It was weird that they didn't put in a modern Mercedes F1 car, though shrug-outta-hecks

Somehow this plain family car makes perfect sense as a collaboration between huge German and Japanese corporations.

The Mercedes-Benz W25 was a Grand Prix racing car designed by Daimler-Benz AG for the 1934 Grand Prix season, in which new rules were introduced, and no championship was held. In 1935,[2] the European Championship was resumed, and it was won by Rudolf Caracciola in a W25.
