It's that time of year again when Porsches are deployed to sell everything from oil, toolboxes, and shock absorbers to wheels, tires, and leather seat covers. The SEMA trade show in Las Vegas was an opportunity to get up close and personal with some of the coolest cars to ever come out of Porsche's factory, and some that didn't. As has been the …

Akira Nakai And EV West Tease Electric RWB For SEMA
Porsche has pretty much bet the farm on the future of driving enjoyment being electrified. With a new Taycan, as well as reports of an electric Sport Turismo on the horizon, plus the myriad of performance hybrids Porsche has committed to, it's basically a given that your future Porsches will come with wall plugs. That's a good thing for the future …

We've been compiling some amazing Porsche models on eBay for three years now, and we've seen some pretty astonishing examples pop up now and again.

Though it's not a common sight seeing a Porsche 911 go sideways in such a stylized fashion, this one does look fairly natural doing it. Tuned by KA-TUN, a Japanese racing outfit, this 964 is meant to slide gracefully at speed. To do so, it sports massive wheel spacers, Bride seats (drifters adore them), the toe and camber settings conducive to …

Polarizing: to break into opposing factions or groupings. That's how Merriam-Webster defines the word. I can't think of any other Porsche "customizer" that polarizes our community more than Nakai-San and his Rauh Welt Begriff (RWB) body kits. From talking with Porsche owners and fans, and we've spoken to a lot of them, when it comes to RWB there …

Leave it to the Hoonigans to find out. Brian Scotto's white 964 is one of the first two car Nakai-San built in the US, the first US-based RWB Turbo, and one of the first RWB turbos after Nakai's personal 930. Brian is no stranger to childish hooliganism in his 964, and this time had to find out if the car could manage a burnout. The attempt …

We love watching Nakai-San work. Whether he's building cars to be used on track or on the street, as in this case, there is something special about each one. This particular car started life as a 993 Cabriolet, and is known simply as "Purist," though it appears to be anything but "pure." All of the traditional RWB hallmarks are present, from the …

It's pretty much de rigueur these days to document the build of a new RAUH-Welt Begriff Porsche. When Akira Nakia-san comes to town, the cameras come out in abundance. As the number of Porsches he's touched continues to grow, so does the library of build documentaries. However, not all documentaries are created equal. Chris Petruccio and …

We literally saw thousands of Porsches this weekend in Monterey. It was a case of overload, for sure. Everywhere you looked, there was something rare and amazing. It's hard not to get distracted by all of the myriad goings on and happenings. We managed to narrow our Porsche picks down to just twenty, so here they are, our favorite Porsches that we …

Rauh-Welt has become an icon of the Porsche tuning community over the last decade. Originally based solely out of Japan, RWB has since expanded their efforts into a global movement spanning continents. Nakai-San's creations have come to life in the United States several times before, but never before in the owner's home garage. This vibrant green …
