- The Sorcerer is Singer’s first DLS Turbo Services customer car.
- Singer takes styling inspiration from the 1977 Porsche 934/5 race car.
- The 3.8-liter twin-turbo flat-six makes 710 hp and revs to over 9,000 rpm.
Singer first announced its DLS Turbo Services program in 2023. Now, three years later, the first customer car has been unveiled—and it’s a stunner.
Dubbed “The Sorcerer” by its owner, this reimagined 964-generation Porsche 911 pays homage to the 934/5 from 1977. Just ten of those race cars were built. Hopefully, we see more from Singer because The Sorcerer is a monster.

Singer starts the process by acquiring a 964-generation Porsche 911 from its owner. This owner can then spec a track-focused build or a road-focused build. This one, with the massive rear wing, is track-focused, while the road-focused version features a smaller, ducktail-style spoiler.
The car is fully disassembled. Next, Singer inspects the chassis, cleans it, and prepares it for the transformation. This includes stiffening and strengthening the chassis, which is ideal considering the amount of power that’s about to be added once the carbon fiber bodywork gets affixed.
Out back, you’ll find a twin-turbocharged 3.8-liter flat-six engine. Singer says this mill cranks out 710 horsepower, over 550 pound-feet of torque, and revs to over 9,000 rpm. That’s a lot of grunt handled by the six-speed manual gearbox and rear wheels. You’ll find carbon ceramic brakes behind the 19.0-inch front and 20.0-inc rear forged magnesium wheels.
The owner of The Sorcerer specced out a wonderful Fantasia Blue paint scheme that darkens toward the rear of the car. On the inside, Pearl Grey serves as a perfect contrast to the outside color scheme. This owner also had the car fitted with a nose lift system, Apple CarPlay, air conditioning, and navigation.

This much power in a machine like this will likely prove a handful to drive. But Singer says the car features five selectable drive modes that adjust traction control as needed. You’ve got Road, Sport, Track, Weather, and Off.
Singer, as you can probably guess, isn’t saying how much The Sorcerer cost its owner to commission. But there’s no doubt that whoever owns the car likely paid a seven-figure sum to bring it to life.
Motor1’s Take: The Sorcerer looks magnificent. Sure, the big wing won’t work for everyone, but it pays homage to a wild era in Porsche Motorsport history. The styling, coupled with the serious boost in power, delivers a car with serious presence. The Sorcerer serves as an amazing spec to kick off customer deliveries of the DLS Turbo Services program.
