Louis Vuitton and Singer Unveil Two Bespoke Porsche 911s

The cars pair Louis Vuitton’s watchmaking, leather and trunk ateliers with Singer’s 964‑era restorations to showcase craftsmanship and signal a new push into ultra‑luxury restomods.

Overview

  • The two one‑off Porsche 911 reimaginations were revealed at Pebble Beach during Monterey Car Week on Wednesday, presented as a joint Louis Vuitton × Singer project.
  • The collaboration began with Singer’s request for a removable Tambour‑style dashboard clock made by La Fabrique du Temps in Switzerland, which expanded into a year‑long brief to personalize instruments, materials and fittings.
  • Singer built a saffron‑and‑cobalt Classic coupe with a 4.0‑liter naturally aspirated air‑cooled flat‑six and a Calcaire Lutétien Classic Turbo cabriolet with a 3.8‑liter twin‑turbo flat‑six, both with six‑speed manuals and Singer performance upgrades.
  • Louis Vuitton contributed ubiquitous tactile detailing — Tambour‑inspired dials, malletage diamond embossing, Monogram ventilation motifs, rhodium‑plated switchgear — and each car ships with a bespoke LV capsule of luggage and apparel.
  • Neither house disclosed price, production volume or buyer availability, and industry reaction framed the project as both a craft showcase that mobilized every LV department and a sign of how high‑end air‑cooled 911 restorations are being positioned as ultra‑exclusive status objects.
