Dreaming of a Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato or a Porsche 911 Dakar without breaking the bank? Your off-road adventure just got a whole lot more affordable.
This year has witnessed the resurgence of iconic motoring trends, and the safari-inspired supercar is stealing the spotlight. While the Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato and the Porsche 911 Dakar are undeniably remarkable, they come with a hefty price tag.
Enter the scene, a rough-and-ready hero in the form of a V8-powered 2014 Audi R8. This beast, preserved in its factory glory until March of this year, has undergone a complete transformation, embracing subtle modifications to turn it into a trailblazer.

While the bodywork retains its distinctive R8 charm, the rear bumper has been tossed aside, exposing the stainless steel exhaust – a trend embraced by modified R8s and Huracáns alike. Flanking the sides, Falken A/T treaded tires wrap around 18in Braid multi-spoke alloys and ventilated, cross-drilled discs. Yellow calipers, a dark blue body finish, and 'Adrenalin Industries' vinyls complete the rugged exterior look.

Inside, the transformation is more subtle. Black leather-clad sports seats with red stitching maintain a sporty vibe, while the original array of switchgear and factory infotainment system remain untouched. This dual personality is part of the charm, seamlessly blending sophistication with adventure.

While specifics on power and torque remain elusive, an upgraded ECU and performance air intake now support the 4.2-liter FSI V8. The power is delivered to all four wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox, although enthusiasts might dream of a six-speed gated manual for that extra thrill.
