Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe Reimagined by Singer
Singer presents the Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe Reimagined by Singer, a painstaking restoration of the Type 964 that fuses classic DNA with contemporary engineering. Rob Dickinson, Singer’s Founder, Executive Chairman and Creative Director, enthuses: “In the 1980’s you could order a new 911 Carrera with the pumped‑up bodywork of the Turbo but powered by the company’s latest, naturally aspirated flat six. It became known as the Carrera with Super Sport Equipment. Our services reference this car and celebrate the era with a vision for an ultimate, naturally aspirated, G model 911, reimagined for the twenty‑first century. At its heart is a remarkable flat‑six, combining what we have learned from the last fifteen years and adding variable valve timing for the first time.”
Mazen Fawaz, Singer’s Chief Strategy Officer, adds: “Together with owners, we’re celebrating the heritage of the Porsche 911, both for those who read every press report about their hero cars as kids, and for those who were too young to know about these incredible machines the first time around. We only work with the best, so we’ve developed partnerships with companies that have built their reputations at the highest levels of motorsport and the automotive world. We’re committed to ensuring that every car restored by Singer is an analogue jewel – beautiful and captivating to drive above all else.”
Owners begin the journey by sending their Porsche 911 (Type 964) to Singer for a personalised restoration. Technicians strip the car to its bare steel monocoque, assess and cleanse every surface, then reinforce the chassis with composite and steel elements devised alongside Red Bull Advanced Technologies, sharpening rigidity for keener handling and refinement. The lightweight carbon‑fibre bodywork, inspired by the 1980s Super Sport Equipment cars, broadens the stance, lowers mass and heightens stiffness, while intakes and spoilers optimise cooling and stability. Clients may choose either a fixed whale‑tail wing or a speed‑activated alternative, and rising auxiliary driving lamps can nestle flush within the bonnet when not in use.
Singer and Cosworth collaborate on the 4.0‑litre, naturally aspirated flat‑six: the first in a Porsche 911 Reimagined by Singer to employ variable valve timing and water‑cooled cylinder heads paired with air‑cooled cylinders. The result delivers 420 hp, abundant torque across the rev range and an intoxicating soundtrack that breathes through a bespoke titanium exhaust. An optimised six‑speed manual gearbox, optionally crowned with an exposed raised shifter, sends power to the rear wheels, inviting drivers to explore more than 8,000 rpm. Four‑way adjustable dampers with cabin‑controlled electronic settings, a nose‑lift function, carbon‑ceramic brakes and 18‑inch centre‑lock wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport tyres combine to translate that performance into confident, road‑oriented poise. Drivers can tailor traction and stability thresholds via Road, Sport, Track, Off and Weather modes.
Inside, artisans craft bespoke cabins using traditional leather‑working and high‑watchmaking techniques. Hand‑built gauges reinterpret the classic five‑dial layout, stitched and burnished seams sweep across surfaces, and discreet tech integrates navigation, phone connectivity and optional CarPlay. For a purist look, clients may specify lightweight sports or track seats, velvet corduroy or Interferenza cloth centres, and even a rear cross‑brace.
Two example commissions illustrate the breadth of choice. A touring‑focused car pairs Celeste Passalacqua carbon‑fibre bodywork and a speed‑activated wing with a Mars Pink interior and velvet‑trimmed sports seats. A sport‑oriented machine matches bold Giallo Segnale bodywork, a fixed rear wing, an aggressive splitter and pop‑up driving lamps with an all‑black cockpit, Interferenza fabric, lightweight track seats and a rear brace. Owners can order both front‑ and rear‑body packages, delivered in a bespoke flight case, allowing them to swap aesthetics as occasion demands.
Every Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe Reimagined by Singer endures thousands of development miles at proving grounds such as Millbrook, IDIADA, Nardò and the Nürburgring, where TÜV certification confirms engineering integrity. Each restoration reflects its owner’s vision, so pricing varies with specification, and Singer will accept only 100 commissions to safeguard exclusivity. A growing Global Partner Network provides local expertise across North America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Australasia, ensuring the world’s most discerning drivers enjoy unmatched support throughout the specification, restoration and ownership journey.
