SINGER VEHICLE DESIGN CONTINUES FLORIDA TOUR WITH NEWEST BESPOKE COMMISSIONS

March 18, 2016 by Singer Vehicle Design

• Two Breathtaking Customer-Owned Porsche 911s, Reimagined by Singer Vehicle Design,

• Bring Style and Exquisite Results in Optimization to 2nd Annual Luxury Motorsports Program

LOS ANGELES – March 17, 2016 – Following a successful Florida debut last weekend at the Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance, Southern California-based Singer Vehicle Design heads south with two of its newest customer commissions, continuing down the Florida coast to showcase the pure craftsmanship of the brand at the highly anticipated luxury motorsports Concours weekend, The Palm Event, March 18-20, 2016, concluding Sunday at the Mar-a-Lago Club. The North Carolina Car and The Florida Car, (referencing their geographic homes) will both hold court within the Singer display areas throughout the weekend, acting as distinct examples of the finest Porsche 911s to be 'Restored, Reimagined and Reborn' by Singer Vehicle Design and blending the brand's unique perspective and meticulous craftsmanship with client inspiration.

The company's heritage is based on utilizing the ultimate in automotive design, engineering and industry standards to meet and exceed the vision of its fine clientele. According to Rob Dickinson, creator and founder of Singer Vehicle Design, and ex-car designer and former rock musician, achieving the 'best of the best' in every modification is the only standard to maintain, and exceed.

'We began in 2008 with a vision to offer aficionados the opportunity to re-imagine their 911 without compromise,' said Dickinson. 'And now, with more than 40 commissions completed, and a significant global following, we've expanded our promise to remain obsessive in the details and keep striving for more innovations along the way.'

Dickinson's mantra, 'everything is important,' is the baseline for each and every element within the handcrafted backbone of the company. 'From the very start, we believed that if we could somehow create an environment that thrived on the best craftsmanship and creativity in customization, selecting only the best resources along the way, along with all the best elements if one could only have just one vehicle to drive – then maybe, our unique celebration of Porsche would be regarded with the same obsessive passion by enthusiasts too.'

And, as the world continues to take notice of a little restoration shop in Southern California that has provided a re-birth of sorts to old and tired Porsche 964s, a new fan base continues to emerge on a global scale.

Singer's philosophy – creating one-of-a-kind masterpieces to each customer's desires within perfectly optimized air-cooled Porsche 911s – continues to move forward with each new bespoke restoration. With limited availability and an 8-10 month restoration cycle, vehicles have more recently been commissioned by Porsche owners in Hong Kong, Moscow, Canada, England, Germany, Taiwan, New Zealand, Norway and the UK.

According to Kevin Ream, founder of The Palm Event, the beautiful restorations by Singer Vehicle Design are perfectly suited for the event's innovative collector car showing. 'Our desire is to offer a world-class experience for world-class collectors,' said Ream. 'While well-known globally, a car restored by Singer is rare to see and we're fortunate to have a pair in our midst – the mystique of the brand, along with its reputation for obsessive handcraftsmanship, is a sight collectors are anxious to experience for themselves.'

'One More than 10: Singer and the Porsche 911'

While many have come to believe the ability to enter the inner circle of Singer Vehicle Design may well be beyond reach, there's one pathway to ownership within a less limited perspective that enthusiasts just may find easier on their pocket-book too – that being the release of the background story of the impeccable craftsmanship within Dickinson's 're'imagination of Porsche 911s and the launch of his book 'One More Than 10: Singer and the Porsche 911' currently available at www.singervehicledesign.com, as well as through publishing house Stance & Speed at http://www.stanceandspeed.com/automotive-books/one-more-than-10-singer-and-the-porsche-911.

Journalist Michael Harley and Dickinson tell the story, while an all-star cast of automotive writers, journalists and personalities offer their perspectives on the Singer phenomenon. Throughout the book some of the finest photographers in the automotive world, with unparalleled access to Singer's operations, reveal the sublime beauty of these Porsche 911s as they are restored, and as they play at the track and run the open road.

As Dickinson notes, 'The 911s, in all their luscious, heart-stopping, high-resolution pomp, photographed by real masters, are the stars - they always are. But this is also the story of a singular vision and the long road to make it a reality.' (SVD 'One More than 10' book excerpt)

Finessed and agonized over just like the cars, this large format, hardback, 275 page, full color, Singer Vehicle Design book tells the full story behind Restored, Reimagined, Reborn for the first time and is priced at $85.
