1994 Porsche 911 (993) RAUH-Welt Begriff \u201cSoulmate J\u00e4germeister\u201d<\/strong>\nIxo - MOC210 (diecast)<\/pre>\n\n\n\n

RAUH-Welt Begriff is something very different from what you expect. Like many (all?) car-modifying outfits, the brand is all about making your car different and unique. However, RWB does it in a very sui generis<\/em> way. Their \u201crough world concept\u201d is almost a way of life, with a particular way of translating that into cars. Only one person works on all their cars, RWB founder Akira Nakai<\/a>. With that, he imprints his style to every single project. For instance, the outlandishly wide body kits. In theory, Nakai came up with them to improve race handling, and of course, to make the car look cool. Moreover, there are other quirks as well, like the made-up Idlers<\/a> tire brand. Or that some cars receive nicknames<\/a>. Consequently, his style is definitively an acquired taste; nonetheless, RWB became a worldwide phenomenon. Currently there are RWB shops all over the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In my opinion, even with the J\u00e4germeister livery, the Soulmate nickname should have been kept on the side skirts.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Soulmate <\/strong>was RAUH-Welt Canada\u2019s seventh build, based on a 993. It was revealed to the public in May 2016, at a shopping mall<\/a> in Vancouver. The following year, in June, it appeared in the Vancouver DRIVEN Aftermarket Car Show<\/a>, along with maybe RWB Canada’s most famous car, the \u201cSuper Musashi\u201d<\/a>. Built in 2014, the Super Musashi was Canada’s third RWB. In contrast to it\u2019s older brother, Soulmate is much more camera shy, and photos of the car are hard to come by. A couple of years later, I think the owner thought that an orange RWB 993 was not exquisite enough. And how to make it look even more unique? Easy – let’s give it a J\u00e4germeister<\/a> livery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Usually, the number you see on a RWB car refers to the number of cars the shop produced.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
From what I could piece together, the car received the new livery in 2018. I found a short video on RWB Canada\u2019s Instagram<\/a> account, dated 06\/20\/18, showing the car in  full J\u00e4germeister colors. Before that date, all the posts I found were with it in plain orange color. Therefore, I infer it became \u201cSoulmate J\u00e4germeister\u201d<\/strong> (or just \u201cRWB J\u00e4germeister\u201d) around that time. I would like to believe that it still sports the same livery, but I honestly don\u2019t know.  Well, at least until January 2019<\/a> it did. I spent a few hours on the web trying to find whatever I could on the car, but information is terribly scarce. I couldn\u2019t even find out what model of the 993 was the base car – a Carrera, perhaps? The owner must be a very private person, since there\u2019s almost nothing on it on the internet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As I wrote above, RWB cars are an acquired taste. And it looks like I acquired said taste… Well, being factual, what enticed me about Soulmate J\u00e4germeister was the livery. I\u2019m a BIG fan of J\u00e4germeister colors, and having only one<\/a> other J\u00e4germeister car in the Garage, nobody had to twist my arm to get this one. If you want a  Soulmate J\u00e4germeister in 1:43rd, you have two options – Ixo or Tarmac Works. I went for the Ixo version, however after I ordered it I received my Waikato<\/a> and Rough rhythm<\/a> models. When I got them, I was worried I made the wrong choice. Those Tarmac Works’ models are awesome, quite superior to my green Ixo RWB. Nonetheless, to my relief, Soulmate J\u00e4germeister here is as good as it’s Martini and Rothmans brothers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Soulmate I now have four RWB cars. For someone who is NOT a fan of tuned cars, that is quite a lot \ud83e\udd28. In my defense, if I hadn’t found Waikato, I probably would have stopped at the green Ixo. Tarmac Works offers many other options of the RWB cars, and at least one or two others have caught my eye. While that may be so, I don’t know if the W-143 Garage has much more parking space for such wide-ass cars \ud83d\ude01.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
