The latest release from Singer, a restoration boutique specializing in Porsches, is the newly unveiled Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe Reimagined by Singer. Inspired by the elusive M491 “Turbo Look” from the 1980s, the latest Singer channels its power through a 4.0-liter flat-six producing 420 hp. Cosworth contributed to the engine development, while Red Bull Advanced Technologies supported the chassis design; Singer is capping production at 100 commissioned vehicles. Singer, a repair company in California that specializes in putting together Porsche 911s, has announced its newest product. Singer and our legal team made it clear right away that the brand is not connected to or backed by Porsche. That’s why the new car is officially called the Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe, Reimagined by Singer. That looks like something you can easily do. As with all of Singer’s other repairs, the client has to give a donor 911 from the 964 generation for this one. For people who don’t know much about Porsche, the secret code 964 means the 911 generation, which ran from 1989 to 1994. Singer’s newest project, the Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe Reimagined by Singer, is based on later “G” body styles instead of the original 911s with long noses. The “Turbo Look” that was offered on the Carrera from 1984 to 1989—which Porsche internally called the M491 cars—had a big impact on it. The Singer version has a naturally aspirated 4.0-liter flat-six engine that is based on the engine in the original 964. Singer and Cosworth worked together to build the mill. This is Singer’s first air-cooled engine. It has water-cooled cylinder heads and air-cooled cylinders. It also has variable valve timing. The engine’s useful range and power both go up. The engine now makes 420 horsepower, which is sent to the back axle through a manual gear with six speeds. No matter how it looks, the Singer is clearly a modern car. This means that the automatic stability control and traction control can be set to five different driving modes: road, sport, track, off-street, and weather. The new Singer also has a front-end lift system and four-way changeable dampers that can be used from the driver’s seat. The car’s substructure still has the source car’s original monocoque, but Singer and Red Bull Advanced Technologies worked to make it stronger and more rigid in twisting. The Red Bull team took the car apart from its frame and strengthened it with steel and carbon materials. Singer doesn’t put the car’s original body back on; instead, they replace it with a carbon-fiber copy that looks like an M491 vehicle. Singer buyers can choose to either take off or put on the famous whale tail rear wing. On the inside, Singer actually lets the customer go crazy. The brand wants to give customers the freedom to make their cars their own by giving them choices in paint colors, leather types, and even how they want the leather to be stitched. Singer doesn’t share costs, but the total cost of each car will probably be different depending on what repairs and changes need to be made. No matter which one you choose, it will not be cheap. The usual Singer build costs about $500,000. Singer plans to make a new Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe, but they will only take 100 orders.
