Back in February, Singer Vehicle Design unveiled the Turbo Study — a 964-generation Porsche 911 done up in the style of a 930 Turbo, . It was the California-based company’s first creation with forced induction and it looked perfect, as all Singer projects do. Also like all Singer projects, “affordable” was not a word most people would use to describe it.

However, if your financial situation permits you to budget not only a Porsche, but a reimagined Porsche, you will soon get to choose whether you’d prefer your Turbo to have a roof or not. Singer has just revealed the first images of a cabriolet version. While there is nothing strictly different about this Turbo compared to the first one we saw six months ago — aside from the deal with the roof, of course — it is a new Singer, and so I’m naturally inclined to share images of it. It’s a good thing you can never have too much of!

Here it is with the soft top down:

...and with it up:

As you can likely tell even from the exterior images, Singer has opted for a distinctive visual for the interior upholstery. It’s not quite the signature GTI plaid, but it’s close, and it employs all the same colors. After once upon a time, I’m fairly certain plaid seats make every car better.

Peek that little mounting point for a smartphone right ahead of the shifter, by the way. I imagine there’s a magnet or something behind the surface to keep your device securely situated. That’s a good idea, and provides this 964 with a semblance of modernity without ruining its original design with a big honking touchscreen. The Turbo Study was intended to be a more comfortable Singer built for cruising, after all.

Singer tends to reveal all its newest projects in computer-generated form, a normally frustrating practice plenty of automakers engage in. I don’t even really care in this case, though, because the company’s renders always look delectable. Maybe better than real life! That’s fortunate, because you’re probably never seeing one in the flesh.

Forgotten Cars: Hummer H3T
Back before GM decided to bring back Hummer as a 1000 horsepower super-truck toy for the well-off, Hummer tried going down market and expanding its lineup. After the rolling example of American pre-Great Recession excess that was the H2 and its useless H2T offshoot, there was the smaller H3...

GM Is Having A Made-In-America Moment
GM is probably the poster child for plant closures in the States and outsourcing production, at least for someone in my generation. It’s weird, then, to see GM talking up the prestige, quality, and profitability of making cars here. All that and more in for March 22, 2022. Lyriq...
