Porsche RWB 964, Ice Blue Metallic

RAUH-Welt BEGRIFF translates roughly as "Rough World Concept", the name Akira Nakai, born in Chiba, Japan, gave to his widebody Porsche work. The first RWB Porsche was a damaged 930-generation 911 Turbo that Nakai bought from its first owner and named Stella Artois, after his favourite beer. Naming each car has been part of the process ever since. The air-cooled 911s are his core: the 930 Turbo, the 964 and the 993 all appear among RWB builds. The kit is fitted by hand: new front and rear bumpers, side skirts, arches and spoilers, with arches in several widths, canards and special rivets offered as options, and the track widened to suit.

This car is in an ice blue metallic with carbon panels framing the bonnet and a PORSCHE banner across the windscreen. The bolt-on arches show every rivet. Number 53 roundels in a blue and pink pattern sit on the doors, with matching graphics on the rear side windows. The wheels are white and deliberately mismatched, multi-spoke at the front and a five-point star with a lime green segment at the rear, on Pirelli P Zero tyres. The engine cover lifts with the tall wing, which has a chequered end plate, to show a large turbocharger, and RWB is cut into the decklid mesh above bronze exhaust headers. It sits on a carbon-pattern base. It is built at 1:18.
