The first-generation Audi R8 has entered that sweet spot where its depreciation means it no longer costs as much as a house, and yet the performance it delivers is still top-notch. As a result, more and more enthusiasts use the Ingolstadt machine as a portal taking them into the supercars world.
Then again, given the age of the R8, showing us in a standard car isn't all that impressive anymore. As a result, many owners turn to the wrap world, turning their mid-engined Audis into rolling stories.

Case in point with the R8 in the images below, which has been given a complete Garfield makeover. The machine, which packs a mighty punch thanks to its V10 heart, now features the feline character, while being dressed in the corresponding shade of Orange and even carrying a message.

This Dutch R8 has was wrapped by the second skin aficionados over at Pro Wrap back in May, with the team doing an awesome job. The identity change has been so thorough that the machine now even has a fitting nickname: Carfield.

Well, Carfield has enjoyed tons of attention ever since it received its new attire, since the supercar was entered in a European road rally called StreetGasm 2000.

Be prepared to meet such a machine while waiting for the traffic light to turn green

Comic book characters being featured on supercars has become a trend these days. And we need to look no further than another StreetGasm car we showed you prove that. We're talking about a much more expensive and quicker machine, namely a Mclaren 675 Longtail. Then again, the chosen theme did raise up to the standard of the Woking machines, since the Mac got a Hulk makeover.

Speaking of McLarens, Asia even has its own sub-trend, which sees local heroes (don't take the term literally) adorning these British hypercars.
