As a team, the two transform the car into a showcase for engineering, watchmaking, leathercraft, and travel design.<\/p>\n<p>The project commenced with a simple analog instrument panel clock. Louis Vuitton\u2019s La Fabrique du Temps workshop in Switzerland developed a removable mechanical timepiece inspired by the Tambour watch that can be taken from the car and used as a desk clock. That initial commission grew into a far more ambitious collaboration. The relationship between the two brands then expanded into a redesign of the instrumentation and, ultimately, two highly individualized 964-based 911s.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis unique and remarkable venture began with a request for a dashboard timepiece for a car reimagined by Singer,\u201d Jean Arnault, Louis Vuitton\u2019s Watch Director, said in a statement. \u201cIt quickly became apparent to us that this collaboration with Singer could extend to the personalization of every functional element of the vehicle.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The first of the two vehicles, a Porsche 911 Reimagined by Singer \u2013 Classic coupe, wears saffron bodywork with cobalt blue and yellow accents. A roof rack is designed to carry bespoke Louis Vuitton gear, including a trunk, surfboard, or skis. Its 4.0-liter naturally aspirated, air-cooled flat-six sends power to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual\u2014offering a driving sensation as tactile as the fine hides. Oversized carbon-ceramic brakes and a speed-activated rear wing deliver extraordinary stopping power and stability at higher velocities.<\/p>\n<p>Its visual vocabulary extends well beyond paint. The cabin of the two-door uses a natural leather tone influenced by Louis Vuitton\u2019s VVT leather, with yellow saddle stitching, Monogram Flower ventilation eyelets and diamond-pattern embossing meant to recall the malletage lining of Vuitton trunks. The instrumentation adopts the Tambour\u2019s graphic language, using cobalt blue dials and orange markings. Singer says it replaced conventional plastic fittings\u2014decades old from the factory\u2014with hand-finished metal components, including switches, vents and pull-tabs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe specifications chosen by Louis Vuitton exposed us to techniques and methods developed over decades of experience,\u201d said Rob Dickinson, Singer\u2019s founder and executive chairman. \u201cThey trusted us with their esteemed brand, their traditions and their vision, and it was a joy to bring our two worlds together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The second commission starts as a Porsche 911 Reimagined by Singer \u2013 Classic Turbo. The 964-based cabriolet is finished in Calcaire Lut\u00e9tien white (a reference to the limestone associated with Paris), and carries brown, gold, leather and wood details inspired by classic motorboats. Its 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged flat-six uses air-to-water intercooling and drives the rear wheels through a six-speed manual. An iconic whale-tail rear wing, carbon-fiber bodywork and carbon-ceramic brakes keep the specification rooted in Singer\u2019s high-performance remit.<\/p>\n<p>Nicolas Ghesqui\u00e8re, Louis Vuitton\u2019s artistic director of women\u2019s collections, conceived the open-air variant. Its center-console Tambour clock is paired with warm gold gauges and a matching ignition key; varnished wood lines the rear luggage compartment, engine bay and front trunk. The front trunk contains a three-piece fitted luggage set, while the soft top and wooden deck reinforce the nautical theme.<\/p>\n<p>As expected from such a team, the collaboration doesn\u2019t stop with the vehicle. Accessories include made-to-measure apparel, helmets, driving gloves, key holders and luggage customized to each car. That breadth is the point: Vuitton is positioning the project as an extension of its long relationship with travel, while Singer gets a rare opportunity to apply its obsessive, restoration-based approach at a new level of material and finish.<\/p>\n<p>While neither company announced pricing (likely high), production volume (likely low), or customer availability (likely extraordinarily scarce), the two cars make the underlying proposition clear. In an era when luxury automotive partnerships often lead with branding, Louis Vuitton and Singer are selling a more traditional idea\u2014craftsmanship becomes most persuasive when every tactile detail, far beyond the logo, carries the argument.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Porsche 911 Reimagined by Singer &#8211; Classic &amp; Classic Turbo Louis Vuitton \u00a92026 Singer Singer, a company famed&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":64526,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[12704],"tags":[39902,2773,4955,39903,19691,39844,39904,717,39905,39901],"class_list":["post-64525","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-louis-vuitton","tag-911s","tag-louis-vuitton","tag-lvmh","tag-pebble-beach","tag-porsche","tag-porsche-911","tag-porsche-964","tag-singer","tag-singer-vehicle-design","tag-tambour"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64525","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=64525"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64525\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/64526"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=64525"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=64525"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=64525"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
