Porsche 911 993 RWB Son Goku Purple GT Spirit 1:18

-5% Pre-order
Porsche 911 993 RWB Son Goku Purple GT Spirit 1:18 GT571 Resin
1 / 5
GT Spirit's 1:18 resin reproduces a genuine RAUH-Welt Begriff build on a 993-generation Porsche 911, the Son Goku car finished in a deep purple over a sealed one-piece body. Resin captures the compound curve of the flared widebody arches more cleanly than diecast tooling typically allows, and the fixed shell holds a continuous flare line from wing to haunch. A mid-premium tuner-culture piece for collectors who want a named, individual build rather than a generic factory livery.

About the Porsche 911 993 RWB Son Goku Purple GT Spirit 1:18

TL;DR: GT Spirit's 1:18 resin reproduces a genuine RAUH-Welt Begriff build on a 993-generation Porsche 911, the "Son Goku" car finished in a deep purple over a sealed one-piece body. RWB's widebody philosophy turns a standard air-cooled 911 into a one-off, and this cast follows that specific build's flared arches and stance.

RAUH-Welt Begriff does not build a standard product line. Akira Nakai's Japanese workshop takes an existing 911, most often an air-cooled example, and fits a bespoke widebody kit before giving the finished car its own individual name. Son Goku is one such build, and GT Spirit's 1:18 resin reproduces its purple livery and flared 993 bodywork as a sealed casting.

GT Spirit's Porsche 993 and RAUH-Welt's One-Off Philosophy

No Two Builds Share a Template

Akira Nakai founded RAUH-Welt Begriff in Japan and built its reputation entirely on refusing to standardise. Each car that goes through his workshop receives a widebody kit fitted by eye rather than a fixed template, meaning no two RWB builds share exactly the same arch flare or stance even when they start from the same 911 generation. Once a build is finished, Nakai gives it an individual name, treating each car as a distinct entity within his catalogue rather than a numbered edition of one design.

Why a 993 Donor and Why Son Goku

The 993 generation, the last of the air-cooled 911s before Porsche moved to water-cooling for the 996, is a common donor for RWB builds, its narrower factory proportions leaving plenty of visual contrast once the wide fibreglass arches go on. Son Goku is one specific build within that catalogue, finished in a deep purple that few factory 911 owners would choose, suiting RWB's philosophy of treating each build as a personal statement rather than a marketable colour option.

GT Spirit's Sealed Resin Take on a Widebody Kit

Casting a Compound Arch Flare

Fitting a widebody kit adds complexity a standard 911 casting does not have to deal with: flared arches that sit proud of the original bodywork and a wider track implied by the stance. GT Spirit casts this Son Goku build as a sealed one-piece resin shell, and that suits the subject well, since resin holds the compound curve of a widebody arch more cleanly than a diecast tool typically achieves.

Purple Under Direct Light

The purple finish carries enough depth under a directed lamp to show its metallic character without looking artificially bright, a balance that matters on a colour this saturated. Without door or bonnet seams interrupting the arch line, the flare reads as one continuous sweep from the front wing through to the rear haunch, exactly the visual signature that makes an RWB build recognisable at a glance. The wheels sit near the outer edge of the flared arches, following the aggressive fitment RWB builds are known for.

A Genuine Tuner Build Against Standard Turbo Liveries

A licensed RWB build occupies a different collecting category from a standard factory-liveried 993, closer in spirit to a one-off show car than a production Porsche. GT Spirit's resin approach positions it in the mid-premium tier, priced above a mainstream diecast 911 but without the investment-level cost of a hand-built metal model, suiting a subject culturally significant within tuner circles without carrying the historical weight of a factory racing 911. For a collector who already owns a standard air-cooled 911, adding a named RWB build is less about duplicating the same car and more about representing a completely different way of interpreting the platform. Placed next to a factory Guards Red or Grand Prix White 993, the RWB build's stance and colour make an immediate visual argument about how far a widebody kit changes a car's presence. Collectors who follow Japanese tuning culture will recognise Nakai's naming convention as part of the appeal, since each build carries its own identity rather than a shared designation, and that distinction is worth understanding before buying.

A Distinct Voice in a 911 Collection

Son Goku works best as a deliberate contrast piece rather than a like-for-like replacement for a standard 993, sitting apart from a factory-liveried collection the way the real car sits apart from other 911s at a car meet. Its purple finish and widened stance give it genuine shelf presence even next to louder liveries, and it introduces a strand of Japanese tuning culture into what might otherwise be an all-factory Porsche display. For UK collectors who follow RWB's builds online, owning a scale version of a specific named car carries more weight than a generic widebody casting, and it rewards anyone whose collection already tells a broader air-cooled story.
