Nice video, beautiful classicly done Porche and great driving 👍🏿,curious 🤔, when you were driving in the Golden State (on a golden day 😎), was that nearby San Francisco?
This is one of the few channel where you can really imagine sitting in the car, driving it for fun. No bruh gimmick, no unnecessary joke, just pure passion.
If they had this video on Top Gear, people would be hailing it as the highlight of the series. Great cinematography, superb insight & commentary. Top work Henry and Carfection.
What? this is way too classy for TG. They would have drowned it out with bizarre staccato audio with juvenile camera filters and 'chop socky' ratchet- editing like a cheap action film. I get you though Rob. :-)
okay, so just saw the intro and had to pause, this gave me chills, it was so good. carfection is at the peak of automotive journalism right now, lighting the passion of man and machinery
Okay, this seals it: Carfection is the best car channel out there. Enough technical detail to make it genuinely informative, Henry's nuanced and beautifully written (and extemporaneous) commentary, and the best cinematography/photography in the game. Having primo access to the best vehicles on earth doesn't hurt, either.
I got to spend 30 glorious minutes driving Singer's Pfaff Commission for review. Having driven a lot of 911s over the last 30 years I heartily concur with Henry's impressions. If I won a really big lottery, Singer would be my first call!
Outstanding. Henry + dreamy cinematography and color grading = the best car videos on TH-cam. Nothing else compares. Top Gear, The Grand Tour etc. need to up their game dramatically.
Wow wow wow. The whole piece is so poetic and puts a smile on my face even though this is not my car and the fact that I'm not the one driving it. Henry's energy is so contagious. Great work Carfection and Henry.
I didn't want this video to end, nearly as much as Henry didn't want his experience to end. I was totally captivated with this. Stunning and hugely goosebump inducing! What a dream!
What a FANTASTIC feeling it is when you’re so Happy you keep thinking that this Special Day will End. Only Henry makes me smile ear to ear and makes me want to DRIVE.
The smile in the opening minute paints all the picture we need Henry. It’s my absolute dream car too, and not just because of the car. Rob’s history and story about how he came to form Singer is also fascinating, and makes one just love the brand even more. Another beautiful Carfection production - thanks to all involved for taking us along!
Massive respect to the editor. Colour grading is spot on and cut so well together. Everything else is fantastic as per usual (Henry, the review, the videography etc). Awesome!!!
I love Henry's films they always have a unique quality - the dialogue and filming are a cut above everything else and seems to transport you somehow to sitting in the passenger seat while he rips along in a Singer 911 just enjoying the ride. Fantastic!
"Best auto journalist out there who's a true car guy"How he narrates a story behind its history and how these guys are presenting is just fabulous. All love always!!!
I have a uncle in Santa Barbra California who has a 70's Porsche 911 SC targa in this same color. I'm very grateful I got to ride in it a few times as a teen. It made me a big Porsche fan for life. The flat 6 sound the beautiful color combination, the twisty road, all perfect. Thank you.
The winding roads of southern California are the best place to drive a perfect specimen of the automobile of this caliber. That tuned 964 chassis love those turns and curves.
I love the part about picking cars of an imaginary dream garage, and while I've never driven one of these I'm confident that if I win the lotto I'm buying one! Perfect car + perfect video = Carfection.
This video alone is deserving of 1M subscribers. Well done Henry and the Carfection team for producing some of the best motor vehicle films available on the internet today. You keep me Daydreaming hard!
Like a lot of people here, I'd like to think I've seen every Singer video out there. What Catchpole does here captures the essence of the drive in a way James May did with his review on Top Gear. Thank you!
I feel like Henry and a Singer are such a perfect combination it feels as though they met years ago - that the two of them should be together is so obvious it can't possibly have taken until now. Yet somehow it did, and entirely predictably, it's perfect. Bravo gents. The journalism is as good as it gets. The film making and editing is breath taking.
Really enjoyed this! Instant watch because it's a Singer. Really love seeing their works. Always gorgeous and interesting. Hope to see one in person one day. Heck, I'd be thrilled to have a coffee table book on their cars!
This has to be the Best advert that Porsche could ever have, the look ,the sound and the joy that comes from the screen as that Beautiful car enjoys itself on that wonderful road. My Thanks to all the companies involved in making that car and the video production company for making that film....... Thankyou 😁👍🏼
Henry gets it! I do the lottery with my mate and we always said, if one of us didn’t know we’d won it, the other would surprise them with their dream car. I always said I’d have a Singer! What a machine!
I think this journalist thoughtful Nigel Slater laid back style works really well with this car. Great car complimented with well timed spaced comments to give the watcher/listener time to ponder this wonderfully detailed masterpiece.
I always missed Alex's reviews, but I think with this one, I can admit Henry Catchpole is just as good if not better. Pure passion, no bullshit. That's what I love to see.
I've loved Singer since I first saw them on Top Gear many years ago and you described it beautifully when you said it was the one car you'd have because it's the one car I'd have in the dream garage. So beautiful, so elegant, so quick.
Henry you have without any doubt just made the definitive review of a Porsche Reimagined by Singer.Just listening to your narrative over laying the sound of you driving the car made me feel like I was sitting in the driving seat, but then to top it all the footage, static,point of view and tracking the editing and overall compilation was movie quality. This is the best review that Carfection has done so far. Would it be asking to much to edit another video of just the driving? I drove some of those roads last May in a bad rental car, wishing that I was driving one of those Singers
Just watched this twice over. I think it might be one of the best car films I’ve ever seen on TH-cam - and I’m not even much of a Singer fan (or, at least I wasn’t...)! I know how hard these things are to make well. ‘Chapeau’ to all involved 👏🏻
That's up there with as good as videos on TH-cam get; perfectly done, wonderfully enjoyable. Not normally a YT commenter, but felt this one was worth it
What a video!! Amazing cinematography. As other comments have said, it would be great to have a long video of just Henry driving. This JUST beats his caterham in the snow up the hill :)
Wow, I drove behind this Singer car with the SONG 2 plate from LA to around Santa Barbara on the way to the Rennsport Reunion at Laguna Seca a little over a year ago. I made a point of being behind him at any opportunity, for the soundtrack and the rear view.There was also a 997 GT3, a 991 GT3 RS and an Aston in the same caravan for some very special hours winding up Highway 1. It was glorious.
A love letter to the car and a middle finger to EVs all at the same time. The love of cars at Singer, Henry's love for cars, nature's love for man, it's all here. Well done chaps.
For pure engine noise check out our video on this car doing laps around Laguna Seca! th-cam.com/video/TUr3DQR4lrE/w-d-xo.html

feels like evo from a few years ago
Henry Benson In all the best ways
I heard a joke. Relax of course this excellent so are a few others
What’s a bruh gimmick
Can we have just one hour of Henry driving it in silence with just the sound of the engine, the tires and the wind? That'd be the dream...
So they'd use a same car for a 2nd review 🤨
I have a better Idea... How about a week or two of *_me_* driving this thing around Europe... South of France, Germany autobahn, Goodwood etc...
I think the dream is to own one!
But with no shots of Henry's intentional coiffed grunge.
@Giovanni Macias no
If they had this video on Top Gear, people would be hailing it as the highlight of the series. Great cinematography, superb insight & commentary. Top work Henry and Carfection.

Rob Staples Clarkson did review it. I can’t recall if it was TG or TGT
TG couldn’t make this video in a million years.
James May did a Singer video on TG years ago...it was pretty good actually.
@@ericpisch2732 The old TG can. Watch the episode in which Clarkson reviewed the Eagle Speedster.
okay, so just saw the intro and had to pause, this gave me chills, it was so good. carfection is at the peak of automotive journalism right now, lighting the passion of man and machinery
I love that the auto generated captions label the exhaust as [music]
Mister, your passionate reviews are something else... Just keep going. All the best

Henry Catchpole definitely knows how to talk to enthusiasts ! stellar review
I definitely second you on that one👍
One man's opinion... Henry & Chris Harris are the two best reviewers in the business. I look forward to a long career for them both!
I got to spend 30 glorious minutes driving Singer's Pfaff Commission for review. Having driven a lot of 911s over the last 30 years I heartily concur with Henry's impressions. If I won a really big lottery, Singer would be my first call!

This is something special
Something that cost $1 million it better be!
Hoooooollyyyyyyy...
That was absolutely bloody amazing, goosebumps!
Whoever edited this episode is amazing. I love the transitions and the text overlays. Beautifully shot also.
Wow wow wow. The whole piece is so poetic and puts a smile on my face even though this is not my car and the fact that I'm not the one driving it. Henry's energy is so contagious. Great work Carfection and Henry.
I didn't want this video to end, nearly as much as Henry didn't want his experience to end. I was totally captivated with this. Stunning and hugely goosebump inducing! What a dream!
My favourite presenter in my favourite car! I'm going to save this one for the end of the day so I can watch it on a proper screen with proper sound.
What a FANTASTIC feeling it is when you’re so Happy you keep thinking that this Special Day will End. Only Henry makes me smile ear to ear and makes me want to DRIVE.
Superb as always in every way! Well done Carfection team really have moved the game on!

The short sequence between the monologue and the title at the start was masterful. I love this channel.
5:51 - That smile; that is genuine smile. It made me smile seeing how much he enjoyed it.
OMG my fave car ever. Saving this till I get home so I can watch on big screen. I know Henry will do it proud. 😎👍❤️
Steve D hi i own one
mark kwame agyekum well done mate I hope you drive the pants off it ?
"Best auto journalist out there who's a true car guy"How he narrates a story behind its history and how these guys are presenting is just fabulous. All love always!!!
The true measure of any car is the smile it puts on your face :-) And Henry had a huge smile !!!

This should not be considered a mere review. It's an award worthy short film, with an amazing script, stunning visuals, and wow, what a soundtrack.
This has to be the Best advert that Porsche could ever have, the look ,the sound and the joy that comes from the screen as that Beautiful car enjoys itself on that wonderful road.
My Thanks to all the companies involved in making that car and the video production company for making that film....... Thankyou 😁👍🏼
This video and the “Manual” video are the best thing on TH-cam.
Catchpole’s commentary is as delicious as the car he is describing. His is a rare and gifted talent.
One of my most favourite car reviews - ever! Thank you Henry and Carfection.
Man people have been reviewing this car since 2012 and this video was STILL worth watching.
Henry gets it! I do the lottery with my mate and we always said, if one of us didn’t know we’d won it, the other would surprise them with their dream car. I always said I’d have a Singer! What a machine!
Welcome back! Thank you once again for sharing your thoughts in a very high level, very deep and very passionate kind of way.
Well I think your permanent grin throughout the video says it all! What a beautiful car, very very impressed!
Henry's enthusiasm is addictive!
4 dislikes? Really? Tesla owners? Weird. What a gorgeous video.
Probably one from J Clarkson Esq.
I honestly thought you were starting to tear up at the end of that. Great piece as ever sir.
Dean Murphy is it weird that I did?
@@elombekisala941 no. It really isn't.
I love that the license plate is "SONG 2" - the song that was used in the E39 M5 Madonna commercial. funny that it's on Montana plates
Beautifully written and captured. Top tier of automotive journalism. Carfection with another gem ♥️
You are absolutely by far the best person, to take us through any of Description of Drama. God Bless
Thank you Mr Catchpole & crew. That one was a crowdpleaser and a real treat.
Henry’s films are getting better and better. Brilliant!
Ever since I first saw the Singer Porsche, I was like that's my 1 car and Now Henry confirms it.. Now to win the lottery!
I feel like the Singer is the definition of "The whole is greater than the sum of its parts."
The parts used are as good as you can get, but i know what you mean peace
i didn't want this video to end, just beautiful , and Henry is amazing
I literally drove this car on L.A Canyons in Assetto Corsa today. Very nice timing!
How! And how much is it? 500k?
@@ItsMe-ky1km he's talking about a PC racing sim with mods. It's about $20.
yeh la canyons rocks ! recognised all the roads in this vid from the mod !
Henry, you and the team have knocked it out the park once again!. Top work.
The ultimate classy sports car reviewed by the ultimate cinematic channel by the classy Mr H Catchpole. Thanks this is a definitive video.
Incredible video, fantastic film editing and review, and wow, what a car! Singer is simply Singer.
I think this journalist thoughtful Nigel Slater laid back style works really well with this car. Great car complimented with well timed spaced comments to give the watcher/listener time to ponder this wonderfully detailed masterpiece.
I have to agree. If you can only have one car, the Singer checks all the boxes. Gorgeous Porsche.
As much as I love the Singer, its you Henry that makes my day!
These videos never get old.
A Singer.....the only 911 I'll ever lust after. It's perfection.
Guys the cinematography, colour grading, edit, everything, superb!! 🔥
I always missed Alex's reviews, but I think with this one, I can admit Henry Catchpole is just as good if not better. Pure passion, no bullshit. That's what I love to see.
AlexF Henry is very easy to listen to,Alex I wasn't a fan of.
The quality of the videos just keeps getting better and better. Keep up the good work!
What epic quality....this video and the Singer. Incredible!
That is perfection right there. Thanks Henry and that is a day to remember for you!!! Great video and well done to you and team (and Singer!)
I've loved Singer since I first saw them on Top Gear many years ago and you described it beautifully when you said it was the one car you'd have because it's the one car I'd have in the dream garage. So beautiful, so elegant, so quick.
You can feel his emotions...great job, sir !
Was thinking the same thing... almost like being there!
Awesome video Henry. Could listen to and look at that Singer 911 all day.
Henry you have without any doubt just made the definitive review of a Porsche Reimagined by Singer.Just listening to your narrative over laying the sound of you driving the car made me feel like I was sitting in the driving seat, but then to top it all the footage, static,point of view and tracking the editing and overall compilation was movie quality.

Another perfect video... Holy sh*t this channel is so consistent with it's quality!
Porsche + Singer=perfection👌🏽
That's up there with as good as videos on TH-cam get; perfectly done, wonderfully enjoyable. Not normally a YT commenter, but felt this one was worth it
Sensational! Want one factor has just gone up even further..... Top class journalism and filming too.
Definitely one of my favourite clips of all time from Carfection. Keep the awesome content coming!!
Another fine review Henry, and thanks for introducing me to the phenomenon of Singer reimagined Porsches.
Incredible production of an incredible motor, loved it!
What a video!! Amazing cinematography. As other comments have said, it would be great to have a long video of just Henry driving. This JUST beats his caterham in the snow up the hill :)
Today, the Two H's joined forces to provide 40 minutes of pure perfection on YT.... thanks Henry. Proper. What I wouldn't give...
still cant get over how good that intro is
Great quality review! Great car, beautifully reviewed with excellent camera work. The editing and soundtrack is perfect. Brilliant!
What a beauty of car and that engine sound is electrifying
I saw this exact car with the license plate "song 2" once in italy parked down the street and instantly fell in love with it
Loving that 70's vibe to the film. Beautiful again, all around. Well done everyone! Got to be the lotto win go to car to start the collection!
One of the best car reviews on TH-cam
Dear Carfection, thank you for existing
Been waiting for this review for so long, amazing car reviewed by the best journo 👌🏻
Great video. A car and video production values to aspire to! 👍
Carfection always live up to its name with Henry. Such a Perfection.

The license plate is the perfect tribute to this epic car. In my head, I'd be jamming Song 2 while driving this all day!
make sure you got your head shaved first

What a great presenter, he made made me feel like I knew this car.
That smile on his face made my day !
Henry, You are a real poet. I love Your work.
