Singer Vehicle Design opened a new workshop

In 2009, British musician Rob Dickinson founded the company Singer Vehicle Design which restores and modifies Porsche automobiles. Since then, they have done numerous restorations and modifications of Porsche 964 cars, and now they have opened the doors of their workshop to Top Gear.

Those who want a classic sports car, restored and modified with modern technology, and assembled according to the highest quality standards, unfortunately have to be patient and wait because the waiting list is sometimes four years long.

Since Singer Vehicle Design was founded, demand has grown rapidly to the point where the company has decided to stop accepting new orders for its Classic model. The company decided to do this because it wants to preserve its value in the future. However, the Turbo model is offered, but about 200 people are already waiting for it.

In its plant, Singer performs all operations, from painting and installation of spare and new parts to assembly and finishing works. Singer director Mazen Fawaz claims that the company can meet all customer requirements and increase the car’s value to seven figures except in situations of severe damage.

We’ve already seen some of their work before, and we can say with certainty that they are a piece of art. Here are some of the cars that the company: Porsche 911 Turbo Study, Porsche 930 Turbo, 1989 Porsche 911, Porsche 911 (964), 911 Cabriolet.

Porsche 911 Turbo Study with 510 hp

Earlier this year, the American company Singer, introduced its first turbocharged Porsche 911 Turbo Study. The inspiration for this model was the legendary 930 Turbo with a turbocharger. Now, it’s time for another model inspired by the Porsche 930 Turbo from the G Series.

The Porsche 911 Turbo Study will be powered by an air-cooled 3.8-liter twin-turbo flat-six engine with 510 hp (375 kW), which is 60 hp (44 kW) more than the first delivered Singer 911 Turbo in the Touring edition. Power will be transmitted to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transmission.

Each car will be made according to the wishes and needs of the future owner. So, compared to the first customer whose focus was on driving comfort, the second customer of the 911 Turbo Study insisted on car performance. Therefore, Singer equipped his car with additional modified suspension, so the car is now even closer to the ground. There are also highly profiled seats and carbon-ceramic brakes hidden behind green Fuchs rims.

The car is painted in Turbo Racing White with two wide green stripes that extend from the hood over the roof to the rear of the car. Inside, the carbon seats are also covered with a green pattern that can be seen on the door panels. In front of the passenger on the dashboard is a “Singer” inscription.

So far, 70 orders have been received. Also, Singer did not say how much this model will cost, but some rumors say it could reach a million dollars. Is that too much?
