Singer Dynamics and Lightweighting Study photos: TG's best images of the week
Take a moment to reflect on a piece of automotive jewellery with these fine images

"There’s been a few of them over the years. A refresher on any of them (the V12s in the Ferrari F50 or McLaren F1, the straight six in BMW’s E46 M3 CSL, the 4.5-litre V8 in the 458 Speciale, the Lexus LFA’s V10, perhaps even a four cylinder from Honda or Alfa) has you convinced that’s the one, the best of all time.
"What’s not in doubt is that the new flat six in the back of the DLS is right up there, alongside any of those above (not to mention one or two flat sixes Porsche themselves have developed)..."
