What to do with the car after it was destroyed in a car accident? Most of us would throw it on a scrapyard. That’s not what the guys at LeeC Parts and Scrap Life Garage think. They turned the 2012 Audi R8 GT, which was destroyed in a car accident, into a 1,500 hp beast.

The fate of this car is very interesting. After it was sold to a second owner, who only had it for six days, the car was destroyed. The front part was completely destroyed, as well as the driver’s door and the panel on the right. The Audi was kept in that condition until it was sold to a third owner from LeeC Parts and Scrap Life Garage. He thought the car was worth saving and did something very special with his team.

The 2012 Audi R8 GT is powered by a 5.2-liter V10 engine with 560 hp (412 kW) and 398 lb-ft (540 Nm) of torque. It reaches 62 mph in 3.6 seconds with a top speed of 199 mph (320 kph). It has a 6-speed auto-clutch manual gearbox and AWD.

The engine upgrade was done by the company Underground Racing, which, by installing a turbocharger, increased the power of the engine to an incredible 1,500 hp. Interestingly, the car uses headlights from the Ford Mustang. And yes, it is road-legal.
