A Porsche 911 Dakar has been spotted doing school-run duty in Norway.
No dust trails, no rally stages – just backpacks, traffic, and the morning rush.
Photos posted to Reddit show the off-road 911 rolling through suburbia like it belongs there.
Except it doesn’t – this is a $300,000 rally-bred Porsche built to conquer deserts, not car parks.

A Porsche 911 Dakar takes on the school run
Reddit user Guilty_Lavishness227 posted the photos with the caption: “A guy in my area using a Porsche 911 Dakar to drive his kid to school.”
And the comments went crazy.
“That is one lucky kid,” one Redditor wrote, while another called the driver a ‘legend.’
Locals even backed it up, saying they’d seen the same car on grocery runs.
So yeah, this 911 isn’t hiding in a garage – it’s out there doing errands like the family hatchback.
Under the hood, though, it’s still all business.
The Dakar packs a 3.0-liter twin-turbo flat-six with 473 horsepower and all-wheel drive.
Built for rally stages, but somehow perfect for school zones.
That mismatch of high-performance absurdity meeting everyday life is why the post blew up.
A half-million-dollar car doing the most normal job in the world, and somehow making it cooler.
Other cars spotted where they don’t belong
It’s not the first time a supercar’s been caught living a double life.
In the UK, two McLaren W1 hybrid prototypes were spotted outside a Morrisons grocery store, turning a routine shop into a $5.3-million car meet.
Over in Monaco, an ultra-rare Porsche 911 GT1 Carbonerre Manta was seen prowling city streets, its full carbon body glinting between scooters and storefronts.
And in LA, a rare Superlite SL-C was caught crawling down the 101 freeway, proof that sometimes the best car shows happen in gridlock.
From Norway to California, these moments all went viral for showcasing the spectacle that is hypercars and race-bred prototypes ditching velvet ropes for parking meters and speed cameras.
Because seeing a multimillion-dollar machine doing something normal will always be way more satisfying than watching it gather dust in a garage.
And it all goes to show sometimes the real flex isn’t owning a 911 in Norway – it’s actually driving it.
