Singer has launched a Turbo Study car inspired by the 930.

Singer unveiled Wednesday a Turbo Study inspired by the Porsche 930 Turbo, which was built from 1975 to 1989. The Turbo Study will make its public debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed this June.

In a press release, the company calls the Turbo Study its "third attempt" following the original Singer-tuned 911 (now called the Classic Study) and the Williams Advanced Engineering F1-inspired Dynamics & Lightweight Study ( DLS), calling it a "third attempt" following the original Singer-tuned 911 (now called the Classic Study).

Like other Singer builds, the Turbo Study is based on the 964-generation 911 built from 1989 to 1994, but the styling is retroactive and many mechanical upgrades have been made. In this case, Singer replicated the 930 Turbo's widebody, "whale tail" rear spoiler, and black trim, while carbon fiber bodywork was used to reduce weight. The "shark fins" on the rear fenders were also reconfigured as air intakes.

Beneath that massive spoiler is a 3.8-liter twin-turbo flat-six that produces 450 hp (owners can specify more if they wish) and is mated to a six-speed manual transmission. The turbo has an electric wastegate and an air-to-water intercooler mounted in the intake plenum. In response to customer demand, both rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive will be offered, Singer said.

The Turbo Study will also feature custom brakes (including carbon ceramic rotors), ABS, and traction control. Since the Turbo Study is intended for longer-distance touring than Singer's other models, it will also offer heated power-adjustable seats, air conditioning, and cruise control.

Singer did not mention pricing, saying only that the price will depend on how individual customers spec the car. According to the company, more than 70 customers have reserved cars so far.
