Ami

"Can't wait for the green light!"

- Ami

Ami is a female bandicoot that appears in Crash Team Racing and its remake, Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled. She is named after Ami Matsumura-Blair, who was the marketing manager for Sony Computer Entertainment America at the time. The other trophy girls were also named after the people that were involved in the Naughty Dog games.

Physical Appearance
Ami has green hair, tail and eyes. Her attire consists of a yellow and green minidress/tankini and sneakers. She is often seen carrying a large yellow and green-striped umbrella.

In CTR Nitro-Fueled, Ami's eyes are considerably smaller, her hair is less pronounced than before and she now has lipstick and yellow eyeshadow. Her minidress now has a yellow checkerboard pattern on her hips and like Liz, she now wears dark green leggings with yellow stripes.

Crash Team Racing
Ami is responsible for handing out prizes to Tiny Tiger, Dingodile, Ripper Roo, Papu Papu, Komodo Joe, Pinstripe, Fake Crash, Doctor Nefarious Tropy, Penta Penguin, and Nitros Oxide. The epilogue of the game states that she became a race kart driver herself, saying, "I'm sick of giving out trophies! I want a few of my own!"

Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled
Ami appears as a playable character in Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled, as part of the post-launch Nitro Tour Grand Prix. She is an Advanced-class racer, like some of the characters she handed out prizes to in the original CTR.

Possibly because of her playability, Ami and the rest of the Trophy Girls no longer hand out prizes at the end of races.
