FYI: Celebrating the Artistry of Singer Vehicle Design’s Classic Porsche 911 Restorations
Singer Vehicle Design, founded in Los Angeles in 2009, has earned a global reputation for transforming air-cooled Porsche 911s into meticulously crafted masterpieces. Known for their unique approach, Singer starts with the 964-generation Porsche 911 and incorporates design cues from various Porsche eras to create a distinct and unrepeatable vehicle.
The Denmark Commission: A Tribute to Copenhagen
One standout creation from Singer is the “Denmark Commission.” This custom Porsche 911, finished in a striking Rome Red Metallic, is now up for sale through RM Sotheby’s. The car’s design pays homage to the iconic red rooftops and the historic charm of Copenhagen’s Indre By, blending cultural inspiration with automotive elegance.
Meticulous Craftsmanship Meets Performance
Inside, the Denmark Commission boasts a luxurious yet familiar driving atmosphere. Every detail reflects Singer’s commitment to combining performance with aesthetic brilliance. Featuring a fully seam-welded chassis, a 3.8-liter flat-six engine engineered by Ed Pink Racing Engines delivers an impressive 350 horsepower. This powerhouse retains the original 964 block but incorporates custom pistons, cylinders, and crankshafts, exemplifying Singer’s attention to engineering excellence.
Unparalleled Features and Attention to Detail
The Denmark Commission doesn’t just excel under the hood. It includes advanced features such as:
- Speed-Activated Rear Spoiler: Enhancing handling and performance.
- Six-Speed Manual Transmission: Ensuring a tactile driving experience.
- Brembo Brakes and Öhlins Suspension: Offering superior control and comfort.
Inside, bespoke woven leather and suede upholstery grace Recaro seats, while air conditioning and an electric sunroof add to the comfort. A state-of-the-art Audison sound system ensures an unmatched auditory experience, completing this extraordinary vehicle’s offerings.
Exclusive and Limited: Singer’s Classic Study Series
Restored initially in 2017 for a Danish enthusiast, this vehicle is part of the Singer’s elite Classic Study program, which is restricted to only 450 units. This exclusivity, coupled with comprehensive custom enhancements, makes the Denmark Commission a coveted collector’s item for Porsche aficionados and automotive art connoisseurs.
Conclusion
Porsche enthusiasts and collectors alike will find the Denmark Commission a testament to Singer Vehicle Design’s commitment to excellence and creativity. By merging iconic design elements with cutting-edge engineering, Singer has created a car that not only pays tribute to a timeless automotive legacy but also offers an unparalleled driving experience.
