Name

The name Singer Vehicle Design pays homage to noted Porsche engineer Norbert Singer as well as acknowledging Dickinson's previous career as a vocalist.

Motto

The company's motto is "everything is important", a reference to their design philosophy in which no aspect of the car is overlooked and even the smallest details are enhanced.

Products

The company's main product is a "re-imagined" 911, which is a heavily modified coupe or Targa Porsche 964. Much of the bodywork is replaced with carbon fiber body panels and the engine is reworked by engine manufacturers such as Cosworth, Ed Pink Racing Engines and Williams to produce significantly more power. The long hood of the Porsche 911 classic replaces the shorter hood of the Porsche 964. Relocated fuel filler and oil filler caps are a nod to historic Porsche race cars. The tachometer is colored in Singer Orange and displays values up to 11, a reference to the up to 11 meme. The price of a 911 re-imagined by Singer starts at over $475,000 and can reach $1.8 million. Examples have sold at auction for well over $1M. Many of the components are bespoke and/or motorsports-grade.
Singer has also begun selling wrist watches.
