Rob Dickinson of Singer said customers don’t have to have the gas cap in the center of the trunk lid on their Singer if they don’t want it there. They will put it in the stock location in the fender if you want. Totally up to the customer.

[@ikigai47]

[@ogremair803]

I don't know why but it looks more like a 912 than a 964. Probably starts as a 964 with 912 parts.

Wow, this guy really worked hard to place himself into the Singer story/company. He really wants to belong.

[@davidhunternyc1]

A part of me admires Drew's attempt at pushing the envelope but, I wonder, how does one perfect perfection? In this case, how does one perfect a Porsche by Singer? As noble as it is to try, I don't think Drew's iteration is an improvement. The fixed tail is a bit of an eyesore. The rally lights ruin the hood-lines, and the choices for the woven interior doesn't really add much either. Overall, I prefer other Porsche by Singer variations. If you were to put Drew's "Sine Qua Non" up against "New York" or "Montreal" I would take those cars in a heartbeat over Drew's. Sometimes "Sine qua non" does not lead to "Audentes fortuna iuvat."

[@sdlausen1]

I know looks and design are subjective but, I really dislike the center fog lights. Jut why? It's not a rally car.

[@matmul4850]

Yea me neither, nor the fixed rear wing. Other than that, i think the dark mencing look is really cool

[@leonmagee3516]

Me too. And I don't like the baby whale tail spoiler. Would've been better with pop up spoiler.

[@mhsigrist]

This is perfection. Can't get any better with a 911!

[@jeffreyb.1657]

It has only one flaw, and for that much money it is surprising: the fixed wing looks awful....to me at least. If he wanted to go fixed he "should" have dune a duckbill....it just looks wrong. I had a 996 with a wing and the cars can take a wing....this one needs to be editted... Otherwise, perfect.

[@terrywbreedlove]

Really love what he has done with this beauty. Well except the deer lights but small detail.

[@autofanaticcars]

Anyone know why Singer is not classified as a vehicle manufacture considering what goes into these builds? I know they contract lots of stages out but they basically charge each customer as a Restoration service rather than a new vehicle. I wonder if CA regulations have something to do with it. Great video 👍

[@MykalJ5]

Wouldn't that require they actually create their own car from the body shell with a new VIN rather than the restoration? Seems a cheaper route to restore for Singer.

[@billw5189]

Yes, you would face compliance issues if you got categorized as a "manufacturer" vs a restorer or such. This compliance isn't CA specific though.

[@gibsonk1200]

This car is better as the cars are new in 1990!! Respect "Singer" sensationel great fantastic job, one of the best 911 ever! One big problem have this car=the price is much more too high for me! and this made me very sad😅 i "love" this car soooooo much!!😉 best wish Reiner from Germany

[@uscp2]

"I think" "I did"... after the video from petrolicious i tried to give this guy a second change. but man... you didn't build this car! you could tell singer what you liked and they could do it for you. give the company the credit for what they build instead of being so full of yourself for the choises you made. beautifull car, awesome spec, i love the choices this guy made including the wing, the gearknob, the colour. but man.. the "build" is not your accomplishment. you didn't do, you chose, and there is nothing wrong with that. Enjoy the car, it is beautifull.

[@HustlerTrickipedia]

@@MiguelGarcia-vj7oo that 250k engine was the 993 guntherwerks build, you could get a air cooled 4,1L racing engine for like 90k, so this wont be 250k, especially because there are not that many changes as i spoke to one of their employees

[@Ruylopez778]

I can see why the mega rich will pay the premium to have everything be 'perfect', but frankly I think it's possible to make 95% of this experience for half the price. I know the philosophy is to cherry pick the best components, and therefore the owner is smug knowing it's 'the best', but I don't think the body looks better, just different. Also 11k tach when it redlines at 8k is sort of dumb, sorry. I get the reference to Spinal Tap, but Porsche is about function over style, isn't it?

[@Velocitist]

RuyLopezQB6 It is indeed, but still it’s a nice little reference.

Interesting fact about Singer reviews. You will never see a reviewer say a bad word about them. Any review done for Singer vehicles requires a contract to sign by the reviewer and Singer has final say on all copy and released content. Probably a great vehicle but that is some seriously dodgy marketing.

Bullshit. Chris Harris and Henry Catchpole, to name two reviewers with impeccable reputations, have reviewed Singers. As in, the same Chris Harris who _Ferrari_ banned for years for telling the truth about the dodgy BS they were getting up to at the time. And you - anonymous Internet Commenter you - want us to believe that the most respected professional reviewers in the field were bought and paid for by a small boutique resto-mod company? Again, bullshit.
