Founded in 1997 in Chiba, Japan by Akira Nakai, RAUH-Welt Begriff has become the most recognizable wide-body Porsche builder in the world. Nakai personally flies to every build location and hand-fits each kit on site, making every RWB car a one-of-one creation. The US chapter operates out of El Monte, California, but Nakai builds across the country. RWB has chapters in over 30 countries including Japan (HQ), UK, Germany, Australia, Canada, and throughout Southeast Asia and the Middle East.
