Japanese Concept for Germany Cars in Indonesia (RWB)

RWB (Rauh-Welt Begriff) is a concept created by Akira Nakai. A leader of the Rough World gang, a drift car gang in Ibaraki that is famous in the world of street drift racing in the mountains of Tsukuba. Rauh-Welt Begriff comes from German. Rauh means rough, welt means world and begriff means concept. So Rauh-welt begriff means the concept of a rough world.

RWB has characteristics that we can see from the over vender, rims and wings that are all wide. Unlike other aftermarket bodykits that sell bodykits for many types of cars. RWB is only intended for Porsche, such as, 911. 930. 964 and others. Another characteristic of the bodykit is that it can only be installed by the owner, Akira Nakai. Nakai-San will come to the customer's place to install this bodykit directly, wherever it is. Usually, each customer must provide accommodation for him to live, eat and drink while his car is being worked on by Nakai-San. After the bodykit is installed, Nakai-San will also give a new name to the car in Japanese. Of course, every RWB in the world has a different name. RWB owners are lucky people, because to own one RWB car, it takes $ 28,000 - $ 30,000, not including the cost of rims and suspension. Owning an RWB also requires patience, it takes about 2 years to make our Porsche use an RWB bodykit. The increasing popularity of RWB makes people all over the world want to have it. This makes the queue for installing this bodykit even longer.

In Indonesia, RWB can be said to be quite enthusiastic. Until now there have been a total of 10 RWBs. The 10 Porsches consist of 4 Porsche 993s, 2 Porsche 930s, 2 Porsche 964s, 1 Porsche 911, and 1 Porsche 997. Of the 10 RWBs, 4 of them are owned by the same owner. Some of the RWB names in Indonesia are Naniwa, Tsubasa, Tsubaki, Tozoku, Susanoo, Hanran, The Bakajin, Kizuno and Erabarashi mono. Every time this RWB passes on the street, every eye will look at the car. One unique phenomenon occurred in 2019, when 4 RWBs held a road trip from Bandung to Yogyakarta. A rare occurrence that certainly provides a valuable experience for RWB lovers to see these four RWBs together. Will this RWB road trip be held again? Hopefully this can happen in the near future.
