Once again, Singer Vehicle Designs has continued to innovate with their Turbo Study project. In 2022, the Turbo Study made its debut featuring a 3.8-liter twin-turbo flat-six engine generating either 450 or 510 horsepower, a significant upgrade from the original 964-series 911 Turbo. With the addition of a six-speed manual gearbox, this project pushed the boundaries of performance and design. Later variations of the Turbo Study included a Cabriolet version with the option of rear-wheel or all-wheel drive, showcasing Singer’s commitment to customization and choice for their customers.
The latest development in this project is the introduction of two new body styles: the Targa and the Flatnose, also known as the 935. The Targa model exudes beauty and elegance, offering a unique blend between a coupe and a convertible. Despite initial skepticism, Singer’s Classic Study Targa marked a milestone as the 300th build completed in February of this year, proving the enduring popularity of this body style among customers.
The Flatnose design pays homage to the iconic look of the 1980s, evoking memories of a bygone era where automotive design was bold and daring. This particular body style, reminiscent of the Slantnose, represents a time when luxury and performance intersected in a unique way. Singer’s interpretation of the Flatnose captures the essence of this era, standing out as a beautiful and striking rendition that rivals even Porsche’s exclusive 935 “Moby Dick” from 2018.
Both Porsche and Singer have set the bar high with their limited availability and high price points for these unique creations. Porsche’s Exclusive department crafted less than 1,000 Flachbau examples before discontinuing production, while Singer has limited the Flatnose model to just 25 units, all of which have been sold. With a starting price tag of at least $1 million, the Turbo Study project represents the pinnacle of automotive customization and craftsmanship, appealing to discerning buyers who seek exclusivity and unparalleled performance.
