Trivia
- The Shooting Star is one of six vehicles in Mario Kart Wii to go through a design change other than a palette-swap, the others being the Booster Seat, Flame Runner, Wario Bike, Spear, and Phantom. In this case, the star on the side of Rosalina's Shooting Star is larger than on the other characters'. Also, hers does not have a foot rest, as the others do. In a similar manner, Bowser's and Dry Bowser's Shooting Stars have their handles positioned lower than the other Shooting Stars.
