Singer Vehicle Design exists to take nearly perfect cars and make them even closer to perfect, all of them starting life as Porsches. Its latest is called Sorcerer, and it’s a stunning improvement on what came before, which is right on brand for Singer.
The Sorcerer, named by its buyer, is painted in a shade called Fantasia Blue with Champagne-colored wheels. The Champagne color also shows up on the inside on the piping and trim, with other elements in gray Alcantara and leather.
The Sorcerer is powered by a 3.8-liter flat-six engine that provides 710 brake horsepower. That engine also has two turbochargers and is the first car as part of Singer’s “DLS Turbo” series, with some engine work done in the U.K. The car is based on the 964 911, the generation built from 1989 to 1993. The Sorcerer uses a 964 monocoque and adds carbon fiber elements in the bodywork, while lightening the chassis. The gearbox, meanwhile, is a manual six-speed. The car has also been equipped with modern anti-lock brakes and electronic stability control, with all the power sent to the rear wheels.

“With DLS Turbo we wanted to celebrate the 911’s evolution as an icon on both road and track and to explore the possibilities offered by turbocharging the remarkable engine developed through the DLS program,” Rob Dickinson, Singer’s founder, said in a statement. “Each car is a collaboration with our clients around the world, and DLS Turbo services are our most ambitious yet.”
The Sorcerer’s enormous rear wing catches the eye the most, which was a choice of the owner, who also wanted a front spoiler to make the car more track-focused. Singer accepts owners’ current Porsches, then dismantles them, rebuilding them step-by-step to make “reimagined” new cars with often startling aesthetics. Such restorations often cost in the seven-figure range, though Singer did not release any figures for the Sorcerer.
“The goal was to combine the power and torque of turbocharging with the high-revving character of the DLS engine, while celebrating the heritage of the Porsche 911,” Mazen Fawaz, Singer’s chief strategy officer, said in a statement.
