If you like Magnus' cars, then check out Singer - equal or better retro car quality and performance.

The singer cars are like RUF vs. Porsche, but like on steroids...

The Chris Harris video on Singer is pretty outrageous. $30K for a wiring harness alone! Which is about a 1/3 of what Magnus was initially expecting for his famous white Carrera, even though he got nearly triple.

But $300K is "Just for starters" for a Singer. Seems like that might be a tough resell on a backdated car. That's 73 RS money.

Well, I had originally posted the video for the crowds viewing pleasure. I shouldn't be surprised to see the usual suspects (almost a month after the OP) turn it into "Boxster vs. 911" debate, get over it already. Enjoy the video for what it is, cool.

Magnus was profiled on the TV show Fifth Gear which I played back today on my PVR. I recorded this episode Friday night 10/4/13 on Velocity Channel. Lots of cool 911s in his shop.
