Really nice cars for REALLY nice money. Gotta agree that the fanboi is strong is most things Singer these days.

Singers are built for one-percenters who don't care how much their toys cost.

I find these things silly, the longer they are out. I.e. the materials used in the engine compartment replacing the sound deadening.

How many have they sold? Sure seems like a nice job, to have a small series foundry like this.

Appreciate the 99.9% mentality that went into designing them and the craftsmanship that goes into manufacturing them.

I don't like how the rear wheels/tires always look like they are sticking out past the fender flare.Like putting 9x15 Fuchs "under" an 8" flare car. It just doesn't work.

What's truly beautiful is the way the targa top fits in that leather sleeve in the trunk.
(at least I'm assuming that's where it goes)

The fabric top looks kinda gross, though... i always thought it looked odd when people did that.

I actually really like the sound deadening treatment. It reminds me of the underside of a Ferrari Daytona's hood.

The trunk (aka frunk) is absolutely spectacular.

Passenger seat with the clubs sticking out the open top. Not only are you rich but you're going golfing in your Singer Targa. "Suck it losers!"
