The company that makes Porsches better

Singer Vehicle Design turns Porsches into automotive works of art.

A Singer-built reimagined Porsche 911 looks like a work of art

Restored. Reimagined. Reborn. That’s Singer Vehicle Design’s motto and it both perfectly sums up what the company does, while carefully making it clear the company is not impinging on Porsche’s intellectual property.

Which is an important point to make because Singer arguably makes classic Porsches better, and that can be awkward for the folks in Stuttgart, so the team at Singer (which is based in Los Angeles) always tries to be respectful. Not that there is any ill-will between the pair, with Singer’s branding proudly adorning the Jota Sport Porsche 963 World Endurance Championship entries.

But the team at Singer really do more than just restore 964 and 930 variants of the 911, they do reimagine what they can be and the finished product feels like it is a car reborn. The attention-to-detail is what makes them so desirable, with Singer doing everything to make the car better, from carbon fibre panels all the way to quilted-leather engine bay linings, the finished products are nothing short of remarkable.

Every detail of a Singer reworking of a 911 is carefully considered, but takes inspiration from the brand. For example, the original 964 bonnet is replaced by a longer bonnet to create a better silhouette, the fuel filler is relocated to the bonnet in homage to the racing 911s of the classic era but then modern carbon fibre is used to cut weight for improved performance.

Power is also improved with race-bred engines developed by the likes of Cosworth, while in recent years Singer started working with Williams to develop more lightweight technologies for its DLS (Dynamics & Lightweight Study) models.

As the company has grown as more and more car collectors are exposed to the company’s work, Singer Vehicle Design now offers four distinct model lines – Classic, DLS, Classic Turbo and DLS Turbo.  Production capacity has ramped up to meet the increasing demand over the years, since Singer began in 2009, and the company celebrated its 300th build in early 2024.

Singer never publicly discusses pricing, as the level of customisation means no two models are the exact same, but it’s not uncommon for them to cost significantly more than a brand-new 911, often costing more than $1 million.

In 2021 Singer Group announced a partnership with Zagame Automotive to become its Australian and New Zealand outlet, offering sales and service for current and future local customers who want to create their own one-of-a-kind Porsche.
