Singer 911 - A classic Porsche with modern running gear
Under the rear decklid is an air-cooled 3.82-liter flat-six sporting six individual throttle bodies. With a GT3 crankshaft and titanium connecting rods, the powerplant spins eagerly to 8,000 RPM. The engine sends 425 horsepower and 340 lb-ft of torque to a proper Getrag G50 six-speed manual transmission. According to the engineering team, the 2,400-pound Singer 911 will sprint to 60 mph in 3.9 seconds. Top speed is in excess of 170 MPH.

I would rather a modern GT3 RS for the technology and the safety. This thing is like sticking a rocket between your legs. Its insane power but the chasis will shred in a big accident. 2400 lb car with 425 hp is no damn joke and I dont think 20-30 year old crash safety is going to give me the peace of mind I require to go ***** out in my cars

This car is insane! I love the idea and would love to wring this thing out on a track - as stated above, it may be a little too extreme for the street but damn it would be an absolute blast.
