My FH5 Log: Stuttgart Classics (PART 4)

The final classic Porsche prize car in the FH5 Series 10 update is one of my favorites. It's the Singer 911 DLS that I've obtained from the Hot Season Playlist and it's good to have this restomodded 964-spec 911 back in the fray because the modern touch on the classic 911 made me fall in love with it, not to mention the Williams connection in it. Anyway, what's it all about the Singer 911 DLS?


The California-based Singer Group Inc. is known for restoring and reimagining 964-spec Porsche 911 vehicles since 2009. Following the success of their first Singer 911, the Classic study, the 911 Dynamics & Lightweight Study was born, evolving the iconic Porsche DNA with Formula 1 know-how. Pursuing the vision of the most advanced air-cooled 911 in the world, the Singer 911 DLS features reworked bodywork courtesy of its updated aerodynamics and extensive use of carbon fiber. In collaboration with Williams, the 4.0L air-cooled flat-six engine was pushed to 500hp of power while mated to a 6-speed Hewland gearbox.

The DLS is part of the Singer 911's 75-unit limited production run along with the Classic Study and it's priced at over 1.8 million US Dollars.

Since this is my favorite restomodded Porsche in the Series 10 prize cars, this calls for something special. Something that should have been done a long time ago back in my UK adventure in the previous installment, if you know what I mean.




See what I did to this million-dollar 911 DLS? I call this the Eve commission because it was named after the idol character from a certain idol girl anime show I loved and missed. This commission fits perfectly with the timeless design of the Singer 911 DLS and it's about as fancy as a sleepover in Hotel Del Luna. Get it?


Anyway, with the idol girl design set and with massive upgrades underneath done, my Singer 911 DLS Eve commission and I are off to the Hot Wheels Park and set off for a wild ride. It wasn't an easy drive due to its 20th-century mechs underneath despite being a restomod, but it sure is a thrilling feat to attempt. Roll the tape.


It ain't a pretty drive but we survived.

I hope you've enjoyed all four classic Porsches you've obtained from Series 10. From the 917/20 race car to the Singer-reimagined 911, such timeless designs will never be forgotten and this is how Porsche rolls, speedo boys.

Have fun!
