Set to cross the block at the Quail Auction by Broad Arrow next month , the 1990 Porsche 911 Reimagined by Singer – Classic Turbo Services “Aurum Verde Commission” represents one of the most significant examples of Singer Vehicle Design’s turbocharged restoration program. Estimated at $1.5 million to $1.8 million and offered without reserve, the commission blends bespoke craftsmanship, cutting-edge engineering, and extensive factory provenance into one exceptionally collectible air-cooled Porsche.
Completed in 2024, the Aurum Verde Commission is finished in striking Nice Green Metallic over a richly appointed Cognac leather cabin featuring bespoke Pascha-inspired woven leather inserts. Its specification reflects Singer’s meticulous attention to personalization, incorporating premium options such as a nose-lift system, Pistachio-finished Brembo carbon-ceramic brakes, a premium audio system, and full-body paint protection film.
More than a showpiece, this particular car served as Singer’s flagship Classic Turbo demonstrator, appearing in leading automotive publications including Top Gear and Evo, while also taking center stage at the 2024 Goodwood Festival of Speed. It further underwent extensive evaluation at the Nürburgring Nordschleife and on demanding road programs across Europe and Australia.
At its core is Singer’s extensively re-engineered 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged air-cooled flat-six, producing 503 horsepower and paired exclusively with a six-speed manual transmission. Inspired by the legendary Porsche 930 while engineered to modern standards, the Classic Turbo program introduces contemporary turbocharging, air-to-water intercooling, and refined chassis dynamics without sacrificing the engaging driving character expected from an air-cooled 911. The result is a machine equally capable of grand touring and high-performance driving.
Internally designated CT0274, the Aurum Verde Commission occupies a unique place in Singer’s history as one of the earliest Classic Turbo restorations and the company’s global ambassador for the program. Developed with input from founder Rob Dickinson, it showcased the marque’s newest restoration philosophy to international audiences before embarking on a worldwide promotional tour. More than $200,000 in optional equipment further distinguishes the commission, while its carefully curated interior features walnut trim, bronze accents, premium leather craftsmanship, and numerous bespoke finishes that elevate the cabin to concours standards.
In 2025, Singer returned the car to its California headquarters for a comprehensive factory mechanical refresh. The twin-turbo engine was rebuilt by Mahle, the six-speed transmission was overhauled, suspension components were renewed, and the carbon-ceramic braking system was replaced, restoring the car to pristine mechanical condition. Showing only 8,449 miles at cataloging, this remarkably well-documented commission presents collectors with a rare opportunity to acquire one of the earliest and most celebrated examples of Singer’s groundbreaking Classic Turbo Services.
