Porsche 911 Restomod Takes Aim At Singer With Carbon Fiber And 500 HP

The Business Of Reimagined 911s

Porsche 911 restomods have become so prolific that they seem to have a subculture of their own. Companies like Singer Vehicle Design and Gunther Werks are among the most renowned players in the segment, where some builds can sell for seven-figure sums.

Pogea Racing, a German tuner, has brought its own interpretation of the 964-generation 911 with the PR964. Unlike Singer's posh, heritage-focused approach, the PR964 appears boldly athletic, featuring a carbon-fiber body and an available 4.0-liter twin-turbo setup with up to 500 horsepower.

A 964 With Modern Flair

The carbon-fiber bodywork features a 992.2 GT3-style front bumper and widened fenders inspired by the 911 Turbo line. Inside, the layout can be configured by the owner, though the launch vehicle had a black cabin with white and red accents, modern sport seats, a three-spoke steering wheel, and carbon-fiber inserts, among others.

Pogea Racing offers three powertrain options, starting with a 3.6-liter naturally aspirated engine, which could appeal to those seeking a more predictable and, to some, more emotionally engaging driving feel compared to a turbocharged setup.

For buyers wanting forced induction, there is also a 3.6-liter turbocharged engine producing around 400 horsepower, along with the aforementioned 500-horsepower twin-turbo mill. That is not as dramatic as the 840-horsepower twin-turbo flat-six in Gunther Werks' recent 911 Speedster build, but the carbon body and other performance upgrades should still make it far from tame.

Some of these performance upgrades include adjustable KW Clubsport coilovers and larger carbon-ceramic brakes.

More Aftermarket Than Heritage

Pogea Racing has not disclosed pricing, though given the extensive modifications, it would not be surprising if the PR964 costs a lot. Some may argue that this is just another reworked 911, but a closer look shows that builders often interpret the platform differently. Singer tends to treat the 911 as a handcrafted luxury object, while Gunther Werks leans into track-focused upgrades. The PR964, meanwhile, comes across as a tuner-heavy street machine.

However, Pogea Racing is not solely focused on the 911. In fact, its first restomod was a Chevrolet C1 Corvette fitted with a GM LS3 V8, delivering around 433 horsepower. Other notable vehicles the company has worked on include the Alfa Romeo 4C and Ferrari 488 GTB.
