The 901 RWB Rotana
The 901 RWB Rotana is an exclusive limited edition timepiece crafted from Akira Nakai’s stunning RWB Porsche, ‘Rotana.’
Born from a close collaboration between Nakai-san and the RWB team, the 901 RWB Rotana encapsulates the signature blend of breathtaking aesthetics and high performance that defines RAUH-Welt BEGRIFF. The ROTANA represents Nakai-san’s vision taken to the extreme—an audaciously styled purple Porsche 993 equipped with a turbocharger.
The inspiration for this evolutionary update to his first project struck Nakai-san during a trip to the United Arab Emirates, when he was captivated by a purple Lamborghini speeding past him alongside buildings owned by the Rotana group. Since then, the Rotana has become Nakai-san’s personal race and testbed vehicle, embodying the spirit of innovation and bold design that is the hallmark of his work.

Metamorphosis
Of an Icon
Nakai-san is celebrated for his mastery in customizing classic Porsche 911s, specializing in the creation of bespoke wide-body kits and striking fender modifications.
Regarded as both an artist and a subculture icon within the automotive and drifting communities, his RWB conversion projects are meticulously handcrafted, eliciting both admiration and controversy.
Repurposed
Original Hoods
While Nakai-san primarily focuses on transforming classic Porsche 911s into their extreme alter egos, his deep passion for the original cars is evident in his unique practices.
He meticulously preserves every hood removed from his vehicles in his garage in Kashiwa, Japan.
Disruptive Down to Its
DNA
The REC x RWB project spanned two years, representing a significant departure from the traditional Porsche realm embodied by this iconic vehicle.
Capturing the essence and character of the car presented a formidable challenge, necessitating constant adjustments throughout the project to achieve the desired outcome.
