We've said it before and we'll say it again - when it comes to Porsches, making bets is extremely risky. Zuffenhausen's attention to details means its ways are so complicated that trying to untangle them may see you loosing the challenge.
Yes, we know, the intro above may seem a bit cryptic, but allow us to exemplify. When you drive a 911 GT3 RS such as the one in the image above, it's difficult to believe that your machine could be ignored when parked on the side of the street.
For eye candy out loud, the sheer combo between the Lava Orange (launch color, by the way) of the car and the hefty rear wing is enough to draw attention, even from those who might mistake the equine creature on the Porsche crest with that on the Ferrari shield.
Well, your brand spanking new track-savvy 911 can instantly become irrelevant if a Singer happens to be parked right behind it.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with the Singer Vehicle Design business model, we should explain this is an aftermarket developer who has understood the Porsche perfectionism to such an extent that the company is able to replicate this in its restomod activities and even expand the concept thanks to the generous budget of the clientele.
As a result, Singer 911s are the most treasured non-factory Porsches in the world. In most cases, such as the one we have here, they're even more precious than virgin Zuffenhausen machines.
For one thing, the 911 4.0 populating the pic above (image via Redditor Mtnryder56) might just be Singer's finest example to date. And when these Porsche melanges start at $300,000, things suddenly become self-explanatory.
The 964 we have here is an air-cooled masterpiece, with the attention to detail making the term OCD appear as an understatement. Should we mention the company belongs to Rob Dickinson, Iron Maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson's cousin?
Oh, and by the way, Singers are no slouches, either. In fact, we reckon the 400 hp unicorn we have here would have no problem keeping up with the RS machine in front of it.
