Porsche 911 / 964 RWB "Pandora One": A Masterpiece of Vehicle Design
The Porsche 911 is an iconic model line that originated in the 1960s. A special highlight in this history is the Porsche 964, which was produced between the years 1989 and 1994. The Porsche 964 was a significant advancement over its predecessor, the G-Series models. It introduced key technical innovations such as a completely redesigned body, improved aerodynamics, and a modern all-wheel-drive system. While the classic 911 shape was retained, there were numerous enhancements under the hood. The model we are focusing on today is a remarkable custom-tuned example: the Porsche 911 / 964 RWB "Pandora One", modified by the Japanese tuning company RAUH-Welt Begriff (RWB). The company, led by Akira Nakai, was founded in Japan in the early 1990s and is known for its bespoke and often radically widened Porsche bodies.
Technical Data and Features of the Porsche 964 RWB
The Porsche 964 garnered much attention upon its introduction due to its modern design. The model featured a 3.6-liter flat-six engine producing around 250 horsepower. It achieved a top speed of approximately 260 km/h (161 mph) and accelerated from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in just 5.5 seconds. Technical improvements also included an enhanced braking system and a new suspension setup, making the Porsche 964 both powerful and driver-friendly. The tuning firm RAUH-Welt Begriff outfitted this model with a massive body kit specifically developed for racing and street vehicles. The most conspicuous modifications include the extremely widened fenders, an aggressive front spoiler design, and an adjustable rear wing. These features not only significantly enhance aerodynamics but also give the vehicle a distinct appearance.
