Singer Aint No Sewing Machine: Singer Vehicle Design 911

Singer Vehicle Design has taken the classic Porsche 911 and given it the bleeding guts out of a newer Stuttgart creation. The team keeps the car’s roof line and everything from the windshield forward, but the engine bay goes through a little surgery to accommodate a few modifications. Singer says the company provides reinforcements all over, including stitch-welding all of the vehicle’s seams and adding a rigid backbone for support. As cool as all that is, the new air-cooled 3.8-liter flat six with 425 horsepower and 340 lb-ft of torque makes this and old-school ride with new-school teeth. How expensive? Who knows, but we’d take one of these suckers over a new 911 any day of the week. [Source: Autoblog]

    No matter how I try, I just can’t get worked up over 911’s.

    That said, I really like this one a lot. It’s got something that I can’t put my finger on.

      It just looks capable, you know? Like it would be the type of classic we all have in our heads — all the style, none of the headaches.
