A 911 built for 911 geeks by 911 geeks. I love it.

If the guys @ Singer are listening, a few questions:

1. Is this car chassis 6 or are there some we haven't seen? (1st Orange/black, 2nd Green/black, 3rd White/brown, 4th Silver/red, 5th Stone Grey/"baseball glove", 7th Stone Grey/red and RHD)

2. This car is the 1st equipped with your sport seat (driver's side), did the owner order it with asymmetric seats? I like the look.

3. How much testing is done post completion? (Miles, weeks, and with testers like Harris and Meaden, tires!)

4. If I ever find myself in LA, can I come by with a box of beer (or two or three!!) to just look and BS 911s?

Simply beautiful.

Great video! I was trying to figure out where I saw the guy that Chris was interviewing at the Singer shop and realized it was the guy on the video with his son in the front seat that was all excited when his dad got on the throttle a bit. Probably watched that video 100X. Anyways, great car and video! Chris Harris really is great! God I'd love his job!!!!

***Yes, mostly right! 3rd is actually Ivory/Dark green, 7th is actually Non-metallic Slate Grey/Red, 8th is Silver/Dark green, 9th is , 10th is

2. This car is the 1st equipped with your sport seat (driver's side), did the owner order it with asymmetric seats? I like the look.

***This is a prototype sport seat which will be carbon and less than half the weight of the power seats. This particular car received matching power seats.

^^^Oops on car 7, I originally typed Slate Grey, deleted my ENTIRE post (new to iPad), then apparently became repetitive.

Car 3, not very many pics of that one.....love to see more.

Yes, that is Maz. He is Rennlister P1CR, had a gorgeous 993, that was stolen a while back. Super nice guy.

That looks like a lot of work and effort that they put into these high quality cars! Having said that, I believe I have read that these cars start in the high $100k mark...anyone know?
