That is probably the most perfect 911 I have ever seen.

I'll second that! [thumbsup]
WANT!
I'll take eight! [thumbsup]
seems like a silly place to put the filler cap. gas drips on the paint seem inevitable.
i like how the guy kept most of the stuff very stock loking from a distance but updated everything tastefully without making it gaudy.
very nice job.

I thought the same thing.
I could probably live with it though. ;D

all of the body panels are carbon fibre, i wonder if that's part of the reason?
There's nothing I don't like about this car except that I can't afford one...

That's the real kicker - $200,000 ....ouch...but yeah!! [evil]
i thought the orange one they originally displayed was much nicer color.
love the idea of this car, modern engine in a classic shell. do wish it was aircooled though.
but for the price, i think i'd rather find me a 930

It is. That's the classic air cooled boxer motor.

that's what I thought looking at the shroud and fan.
and the guys somehow got 430 hp out of the thing, that is insane.

Which generation? A hotted-up 993 motor?
(If it said in the article, I missed it.)
Drivetrain
The Singer 911 utilizes the most evolved air/oil cooled 911 engine from the 993. However,
the goal with the stock 3.6-liter engine was to develop it into the most modern rendering of the air/
oil cooled engine concept. With the help of U.K.-based, Ninemeister, masterminded by engineer, Colin
Belton, and constructed in San Francisco by famed engine builder Jerry Woods Enterprises, the stock
3.6-liter engine is rebuilt to displace 3.82 liters
