Singer Vehicle Design returns to Monterey Car Week to celebrate a decade of milestones and successes that began with its first Porsche restoration, shown in Monterey, CA in 2009.
After delivering more than 150 customer commissions worldwide, more than two-dozen owners will be sharing the local Monterey-area roads with their own custom 911 reimagined by Singer. Numerous displays for the brand will be present throughout the weekend. Ten years ago, in a corner of a small workshop in Sun Valley, CA, the newly formed Singer Vehicle Design began its first restoration of an air-cooled Porsche 911. SINGER 911:DECADE OF PORSCHE PERFECTION!
In those 10 years Singer has defined a philosophy: iconic design optimized for the twenty-first century. Plus a link between heritage and cutting edge, a refusal to compromise on either dynamics or aesthetics. Within a decade, Reimagining has entered the automotive lexicon; “Singerize” has become a verb; interest in heritage has been re-kindled, and a new standard has been set for celebration of the automobile.In addition, Singer’s obsession and fascination – the pursuit of automotive and mechanical art, guided by the mantra Everything is Important – has found a global following of kindred spirits.
Rob Dickinson, founder and creative director for Singer Vehicle Design explains: “Singer began as our own personal philosophy, but we seem to have resonated with something in the world of twenty-first century design. It’s incredibly affirming and humbling to discover how so many of us think as one, as car enthusiasts. The entire automotive industry seems to be going through its own period of reimagination right now. The next ten years will see Singer continue to innovate and bring new ideas to the world that look to celebrate both the past and, increasingly, the future.”
