Singer 911 in classic white
"the Singer Design 911 combines the best of both worlds with a modern chassis
and drivetrain cloaked in the classic lines of the original, painstakingly recreated
in immaculate detail. And two new technical partnerships promise to make 'em even better.
Renowned British engineering firm Cosworth – the same that has powered
Formula One cars since 1963 and currently motivates the likes of Williams
and Virgin Racing – will now be preparing the air-cooled flat-six engines for
Singer. Meanwhile, the carbon-fiber bodies will be made by the Aria Group,
a company best known for crafting concept cars and prototypes for a
wide array of automakers.
Starting at $190,000 and extending beyond the $300k mark, the Singer
911 ain't cheap, and sure ain't as common as a factory 911. In fact,
Singer has only made a few of them, delivering its third example painted in
white (following the previous units in green and orange) to one assuredly
very happy customer."

oh lord. That car in white is amazing! I thought the green one was beautiful, this one is just stunning. This has to be one of my favorite Porsches ever. That thing is just full of class and attention to detail.

it really just spectacular, especially in white. love the details (analog radio!). and judging from the specs (2400lbs and 425hp in race edition) its a helluva performer too, were one to dare drive it like a 911 should be driven

The more I look at the pics, the more I love this car. That interior is perfection, and the mix of modern touches to the retro body is great. For the price, not sure I'd choose one over a 4.0, but it would be a tough decision...

yeah, the guy behind the wheel of the white 911 in the 1st pic, Rob Dickinson, founded the band Catherine Wheel,
and his cousin is Bruce Dickinson, the leadsinger of Iron Maiden.
So, both talented in many ways
here is a video of Rob, the leadsinger and man behind Singer Porsche:
