Yeah. That yellow with the matching yellow rims is definitely a bit much for even me. Shocked at how high the bid is already.
That said, I've actually driven one (with the correct transmission... manual) and I fell in love with that 3.0L 4 cylinder. Car shifted so beautifully and the torque in that thing felt so good. While the car didn't feel fast per se, it drove awesome. And those headlights!!! I preferred the 928 overall, but of course that's apples and oranges. I'd gladly have either one. Haven't had the pleasure of driving either one in over 20 years FML.![]()
This shit's getting ridiculous. Last night on B-J these Bronco restomods were going well over 100K.

Meh, I'd rather have an FJ40 or 45.
$265k and two more hours left. What the fuck.
He bought it for $50k last may

I know an icon build ain’t cheap. But what the fuck. Boomers gonna boom.
ICON went through it. It's like wondering why a Singer is expensive. There is design history with Nike.

Thanks Maz,
There's a guy in town that has an ICON Defender that looks absolutely slick and I knew they were intricate off-road builds but I had no idea they cost that much. At least with a Singer you get a totally bespoke 911 at the end of it all and not someone looking at it like it's a $30K Bronco restomod.
I still call it The Jake.
At least the Singer, besides being artwork, is drivable in it's intended asphalt environment.

Maybe the guy from Maine who won the big one bought it?

I've been to one of those open road top speed events up there in Idaho. Good times.
sigless.
I wish I could stop reading about Singers.
There really aren’t any super cars I’d want to own, but then I remember Singers exist and I wonder how much I could get for one of my kids.
Agreed with all of the above. Singers are freaking sweet and I would do vile things for one. Add to that list a Volvo P1800 Cyan. /drool
