Porsche 911 Singer DLS Sound: a $1.8 million restored 964 w/ 500hp Air Cooled NA Flat-6!

- Which was my favorite car seen during the 2018 Goodwood Festival of Speed? I'd say this one and it was unveiled by Singer, a California-based Porsche restorer company famous for its incredible quality reimaginations of Porsche's 911s. The DLS ("Dynamics and Lightweighting Study") is their last creation.
The entire project is a result of a client's commission, who wanted Singer to improve the performance and reducing the weight of his Porsche 964 (Singer will modify 75 other cars with the same or similar upgrades), and the collaboration with Williams Advanced Engineering and two legendary Porsche engineers.
Engine has been fully developed by Williams and legendary Porsche engineer Hans Mezger. It is a 4.0-litre air cooled NA flat-6 engine that is able to produce up to 500hp at 9,000 rpm. This thanks to the use of quality materials: four titanium valves per cylinder, twin overhead magnesium cams, lightweight throttle bodies with F1-style upper and lower injectors and a modified oil system.
The outside body is now full carbon-fibre and the aero has been studdied and modified in order to improve everything. Suspensions has been fully revised and developed by Williams too while the 6-speed manual gearbox has been produced by Hewland.
The interiors are simply what I called "work of art" with Recaro lightweight seats, carbon fibre everywhere and carbo-titanium pedals. WWhat I love the most is the exposed gearshift.
Hear and watch one of their 911 DLS prototype running up Goodwood' hillclimb course!

The perfect car doesn't exi...
😂😂😂
Amazing car, and I love your pun. But $1.8 million makes this car, not the perfect car
This might be the best sounding car I've ever heard
Getting 500 horsepower out of a naturally aspirated air-cooled 6 cylinder engine is amazing.
Absolutely unbelievable. First time i'me hearing of this car. And just learned 5 minutes ago how hard it is ti get reliable power out of an air-cooled engine
And keeping the weight under 1000kg !!
@@johnnyboy1586 oh that bit is easy. its sohc too so not much valvetrain in the head
You think! I don't know about that, considering all the factors involved. The big one being $1.8 Million price tag, starting with the 996 engine that Singer had success with that built the brand and opened the door for taking things further, especially with the talent that was available who were involved in Porsche's development of some of Porsche's the greatest race cars they built.
I am pretty sure that Porsche would have achieved getting as much or more from the 993 platform had there been the need and there been any future left for the air cooled engine. Porsche had no choice than to change from air cooled due to the restrictions the geometry of the car, environmental regulations, and limits staying with air cooled was going to put on the development of their road cars. But all that aside, it is still quite an achievement for Singer and I do admire what Rob and his team created.
Every time I watch a Singer video, I kick myself for selling my 77 911s that I had swapped the 2.7 for a 3.6 993 engine and had modified with updates and upgrades with a similar goal in mind. To even get a decent G body and find a 3.6 in good condition to build another car is next to impossible due to the insane prices of air cooled 911's now. The 3.6 was such a good engine, bulletproof, strong, and with room to increase power reliably.
Having that bozo not ruin the clutch in 1300 feet is a feat in and of itself. Bravo
I can't find the perfect word to describe the sound...God, it's aggressively melodic! 😍😍😍
Looks like Van Halen's guitar.
Looks like Van Halen's car.
Looks like Parker's (Vehicle Virgins) Lambo wrap, also inspired by Van Halen.
That flywheel must be light as a feather. Listen to those revs😍😍
Good ear. The revs drop really fast
Amaze-balls car. I hope the driver someday catches up to the potential of the car.
I bet its a pain in the ass to drive.
You can hear the engine is very well built
what a sound !!!! great video!
That’s the best sounding Porsche I’ve ever heard
Sounds amazing on throttle lift off
Such a great looking Porsche I love how Porsche really hasn’t changed for the last 70 years or so
That car is clean asf 👀👀👀🔥🔥🔥
My god bozzy u never disappoint! This car man...
Good lord that sounds glorious
Love how the wheels change colour, great new innovation
Worth every penny
What a beautiful car, and that sound !
I'll take one please :)
This and the current RSR are the best sounding 911s ever
What a SICKO of a car 🤤
amazing car, amazing build... not sure about the driver lol
I think i found my new favorite sounding porsche :D
I love that red, black and white livery.
*shivers*
Two words - want one!!!
Remind me the old glorious V12 sound
This Singer looks like Edward Van Halen Frankenstrat guitar 😍
It makes a '73 Carrera RS 2.7 seem cheap at over a million dollars _less_ expensive.
So there's that.
This is a different type of car altogether
Art❤️
Bang bang !
The Dream.
Right from Rogan to this sweet ride
eargasm !
Love the car ever since top gear showed it in depth. I would change the exterior colors of this one
gonna have to place a strong disagree regarding color
Its a prototype
@@kdoran709 there are more then one version i have seen a white one already. Each one bespoke
They brought 2 to goodwood. The red one is their test car that they let the journalists thrash. Not a customer car. However the white one on display, is already sold.
@Trần Đức Bro wtf
2:08
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Porsche
Mono lug fuch's. Never seen those. I need one of these!!!!
Great PORSCHE
This colour does not make the car justice.. What a car and what a sound !
belíssimo barulho
this flat6 sounds like a v12, same thoughts??
That downshift sound omg…
Dio mio che musica
This should've been the modern 911
I LOVE BOZZY'S POSTS...DOES HE DO ANY FULL RACES WITH NO ANNOUNCERS?
A unicorn!
At 500 hp that’s probably the most powerful Singer ever
JAYZUS!!!
Innaresting little bugger. Nice job with the sound Bozz!
Either a very grabby clutch or very long first gear
Naufal Kusumah An edgy combo of the 2 😄
both plus 9k rpm
Also a light flywheel
Probably not a ‘’driver’’ driving
And a VERY light weight flywheel....
this is what dreams are made of. wahhh
1:51
What a beautiful sound, what Formula 1
Singer makes the fastest Porsches in the UK
How a flat 6 should sound! Smooth, not raspy!
problem with the gear changing or clutch..?
Nah, just playing music for the fans.
Eargasm...
I'm usually not so fond of Singers but this one I like. It seems entirely track-focused instead of the sometimes overloaded with bling "standard" Singers. The sound is otherworldly, reminiscent of the 991.2 RSR.
It does seem like it needs a steeper first gear. Why not, it has steamroller tires and revs to 9000.
Toller Start 😂
Sitzt da eine Frau am Steuer?
It sounds like gte rsr that ran lemans
Why do they call it a 964? Isnt it based on the first gen 911?
911’s all have different model no’s this is a 964 chassis underneath.
Gimme
When your car is heavily mod by Williams F1 racing.
not a fan of they older 911's...but DAM that looks nice! :)
Whats the Porsche obsession with air cooled? Good luck driving this thing in Cali traffic when its 40C.
You can drive an air cooled in very hot weather up a mountain, no issue, even in traffic
Dumb question: can you swap it into a 964?
It is a 964
Ridiculously pricey
sounds better than it looks
Sounds almost as good as a 4rotor.
👀👍❤✌😎
Can we please get somebody that knows how to drive a Porsche drive this car? For Christ sake!
Nice car... way way over price.. not too sure about different color wheels on each side... Been a Porsche owner .. at a young age had many many Porsches..so nice .. but still do not see that kind of money in this Porsche
it's not a Porsche any more...it is a Singer...handmade one of a kind. If you look hard enough you'll find the info what this car and the motor is all about and why it has that price tag
This is what little cars want to be when they grow up
Dont crash it pls
Gott schütze uns vor amerikanischer Restauration. Ich weine um einen verlorenen 964...
100% better looking compared to actual 911's
Backs off the throttle constantly to stop it torque steering . Shit heap
Don’t butcher me but I’d much rather have multiple rwb Porsche cars than 1 1.8 million dollar singer Porsche. I respect both equally tho and i love the detail
40 year Porsche 911 enthusiast and owner........ Not at that price.
I need new pants
Nice car..... dont see million dollars..
Every single inch of this car is refined and re-engineered. It's not just a 964 with a fancy engine. Singer worked with Williams developing this version.
@@IamShrimple yes I understand that I had my first 911 when I was sixteen so I do know 911.. still 2 911 ..944 928..and honestly I would really have to drive it to see if it's worth a million it and I would tell you I know the test..
The video was described best by the blokes face at 2:06. All that revving and Fail
I agree!! that launch was horrendous...I wonder if Rob did a face-palm after seeing that!!
Driver: Josef Stalin 😅
1.8...? Idk too much
Martin Gamboa Slightly .
1.8 million dollars! Fuck, i wish i were rich. I'd drive the fucking piss out of that thing. Most will wind up in the garages of bastards who will never drive it and think of it as an investment. I'd have that thing screaming at 9k on the track as much as possible.
i find it troubling that a 2 million dollar car cant get off the line with out stalling ...... its obvious theirs a fundamental problem with the car ...... on the other hand it looks gorgeous but i would take the white one please n thank you
Just has a multi-plate clutch with an extremely light single-mass flywheel. It's not easy to launch cars with that setup unless you just dump the clutch, but I assume that the setup in this thing isn't cheap, hence why they're treating it gentle.
@@philbertlovely7724 Your showcasing the car to the world n you keep on stalling it looks very bad
So you're at your midlife crisis, you've got almost $2m lying around. Your car collector buddies keep talking about priceless Ferraris, GT40's, and other time capsule cars and how they were race-bred and have heritage and yada yada yada. "Hey _____, which of those do like you like most?" Do you go and buy an F40? Naw, you've already commissioned a Singer.
the driver doesn't know how to drive
Probably their first time having to change gears themselves, too used to all the slushboxes and paddles these days. No clutch control and no feel for what gear they are in or what gear they are choosing without looking.
PHDarren dude it's a multimillion dollar prototype (or its already sold idk). You wouldn't drive it like you stole it...
A beautiful car for sure, but i'm having a really hard time figuring out why they are so expensive and why old air cooled porsches have gone so far up in value? Anyone want to chime in? O_o So bizarre. I mean really, this makes no sense. The amount of car you could buy for that, let alone multiple exotics, I mean you've really got to be crazy to spend this kind of money on some basic porsche no? And yeah, I know Singer does a lot of refurbishing work to the cars, still $1.8 million?!
I mean come on you could get into a Koenigsegg or a Zonda for this money.
youtubasoarus it is absurd money. But they build almost a new car. At least on the other “cheaper” Singer builds I’ve seen, even the rear fender panels were replaced with carbon fiber. Then the suspension, brakes, everything else is replaced with newer upgraded components with some parts taken from race cars. So it may look sort of stock, but underneath it’s a bit more hypercar than old classic. And as much as I love the Zonda, I can also see the appeal of something with more classic understated looks. But all that goes away as soon as you start it up. So it’s hard to say this would be a more discrete form of transport. It’s a bit of a contradiction. Despite that I bet they sell every last one before they can finish building them.
So what, entire race cars cost less than this and they are stripped down to a shell and loaded up with top shelf parts. This is insanity.
youtubasoarus I think its deep into the realm of insanity. But you can say the same about all hypercars. The difference from a race car is that after they build a race car then they continue to build a luxurious and maybe even comfortable car on top of that. Race cars do not typically have the fit and finish of something like this. So thats part of it. The rarity and thrill of having a bespoke car like this means you can pretty much name your price. Im just theorizing the thought process of the uber rich people buying these. For me a plain old simple GT3 is all the car I need in the world.
Well if you look at something like a Koenigsegg or a Zonda they are using 100% carbon fiber everything, top shelf parts, custom parts (CNC'd 1 offs), top grade leathers, etc. This car doesn't even have that much power, I think there's some sort of fuckery going on in this market (ie. tax sheltering?). Doesn't make even a lick of sense comparatively speaking. For sure it's in the realm of the rich only, or more clearly the more money than sense club.
And yeah the GT3 is only 350k+ the GT2 is 500k for fuck sakes that's like a 3rd the price. These people are on another planet with this shit. But as has been said before, a fool and his money are soon parted. People are free to pay what they wish. It's just mind boggling is all.
youtubasoarus not sure what currency we’re talking but a GT3 is under $200k US with some 991.1s closer to $120k. And it’s a hell of a car. So you and I are pondering the question of value in a luxury item that’s 10x beyond what at least I could afford. They’re just opinions. It’s not a gallon of milk. This sort of thing is arbitrary.. Have you seen the detailed photos? Much better than this car which may have been a prototype or press car. I will say that considering the Williams F1 engine, great looks and bespoke CNC parts.... this is not just a classic air cooled 911. Far from it. And if I did have $100 million in the bank I’d buy one of these in a heartbeat. It is absolutely a hypercar. It’s disguised as a classic. So we’re just pondering why hypercars cost as much as they do. I think the answer is “because they can”. Because some people are that rich. And I’m actually glad for that because if that was not the case, these cars wouldn’t exist and the world would be slightly less interesting without them. I’d be surprised if they don’t sell out.
this car needs a better driver
Thats not a 964 .. Thats a 70-71 911 ...
They.dont.drive.it.at.all...Its.ecotourism.
Non driver
1.8mil? I think not! I am a through and through Porsche enthusiast but that price is absurd! And they want to create 75 of them? How the hell do they come up with these prices anyways! I’d way rather purchase a 918 then this!
Giancarlo Eiras i saw it at goodwood and when you look up close at it everything is perfect and all the materials are amazingly high quality plus it apparently takes a few months to make the car, i’d say £1.8 million is a little high but understandable considering the work thats gone into it
They do it because they can
That’s because you don’t have the money
wolftmfg so your saying I would have to have the money to afford this car to understand the 1.8mil price tag? Get fucked
marketing is not for everyone ;)
Best car but worst driver...
Alejandro Acosta you don’t know sh*t
Yep,he don't know shit
i bet you'd stall it after one foot
Considering it was Chris Harris at the wheel, a very good motoring journalist, its probably the car not the driver. The clutch is probably a bit grabby
$1.8 million??? I think not!
Great car , sucky driver
They should have left the striping off of it, that's ugly as hell.
Grrreat car but ridiculous price!!! Only for the bored and cocky elite!!!
Guys with "man buns" shouldnt be allowed to drive a car like that.
