Far from intending to deliver a modern driving experience, the DLS is still very true to its origins. A hands-on, analogue interface, with a manual gearbox and race-oriented 4.0 naturally-aspirated flat co-developed with Williams. Consulting the likes of legendary Porsche engineers Hans Mezger and Norbert Singer during the development phase, Singer and Williams have worked in unison to heavily fettle the air-cooled powerplant. In production trim, it now offers around 500hp with a rev limiter coming in at 9,300rpm. With the engine starting life as the standard 964 3.6 litre, works were carried out to revise almost every moving part. Titanium con-rods, aluminium throttle bodies, carbon intake trumpets, a bespoke carbon airbox, fuel injectors with twin injectors and a ram-air induction system fed by inlets in the iconic rear ¾ windows that keeps the profile so pure and true to the classic 911 style. If somehow you’ve dismissed this car so far, the startup of the Inconel and titanium exhaust will serve an overdue wake up call.
Singer have limited the DLS to just 75 examples and naturally, all were spoken for as soon as the prototypes made the headlines on the internet. It is understood that of that number, only around 10 cars will be built in right-hand drive.
This example was completed just a couple of months ago. Prior to delivery, the car received a full running-in by Singer in the UK as well as a shakedown by test-driver Marino Franchitti. Prior to delivery, the car received full paint protection film.
This DLS is optioned in Bespoke Porsche Mint Green, introduced on the 964 in 1991. The interior is optioned in DLS Semi Aniline 7, a stone-coloured light grey hide and the seats feature the uniform woven leather. The exterior sees all brightwork in a very subtle champagne bead blasted hue.
Benefitting from a wealth of options, this DLS combines a bright Porsche hue with a subdued leather tone to ensure every drive is an event without excess. Much of the interior shares the exterior body colour, including the doorcards, central transmission tunnel and rear mouldings. The internal ram-air engine feed is also finished in Mint Green.
Fitted with both standard seatbelts and harnesses, the option for road or track use is mere moments away. Fitted with close to £130,000 of options this example presents as incredible opportunity.
