What's the best Mario Kart game?

I've played all but 8 deluxe and the arcade ones. Double Dash has great music and tracks, but the AI is incredibly frustrating. The cars in Ds feel slow and empty, but the mission mode is fun. 7 just doesn't have the same feeling as the other games, but that's probably because I always use first-person mode. But I'd have to go with 8 as my favorite. While the anti-gravity sections feel like ant-gravity sections, the music is incredible, the driving mechanics work great (except for bikes, which I always use in Wii), and superb atmosphere, it's a shame that it randomly stopped working one day.
