A Singer is performance art. A Singer is built to an aesthetic not a specification. A Singer is like a piece of music where each part of the car is an instrument playing notes and each note has to blend perfectly with the other notes to create a harmony. And as the car is driven, the rhythm driving the harmonies creates a melody of a song. A Singer is an interpretation of the ultimate 911.

Thus, a Singer-type Boxster would be the ultimate Boxster as interpreted by the designer.

And I am working on my interpretation...
It is a beautiful car and well executed. I wouldn't call it the ultimate 911, maybe the ultimate non water cooled 911. The 911's you can get from Porsche today I would take over a Singer 911 in a heartbeat.

Then there is the price $500,000 for that car? Several other cars I would pick over the Singer 911 and still have money left over.
