Default I met Akira Nakai San of RWB at Porsche Langley Coffee and Cars Today

Very nice surprise to meet Akira Nakai San and see two of his RWB Porsches today at Porsche Langley Coffee and Cars. Super cool guy who took the time meet people and look at their cars. He even took the time to talk with me and check out my car. It was another great event with some great people at Langley Porsche. Enough said.....and I know show some pics or it didn't happen. So here's some pics........

Wow, it was a great turnout today! Thanks Mixter, for posting all the great pics, especially that lineup of 964s (mine's the silver one on the right).

Many thanks to Porsche Langley for hosting; everyone I talked to was super impressed.

Cheers,

Jim G.

Thanks for sharing the great shots. Very nice selection of cars present.
It's also inspiring meeting people like Akira Nakai San. People who are as passionate about these cars as we are.
What's the color name of the blue RWB?

when I saw the two RWB cars pull up was one thing, but to see Akira get out of the blue car was really cool!

Wish I could have attended this! Was in Vancouver but was tied up with family commitments/wedding.

Curious what seats he used in the newest RWB 964?

Recaros.

The green car had knock off CGT seats which was kinda lame... Would be nice with pole positions!

Akira is a really cool guy. He actually took the time to meet with a lot of people at the event.

The blue one looked like Mexico Blue to me but not sure.

I know it was completely unexpected to see the two RWB's pull up, and then to see Akira was driving (the 964 of course) was surprising, but then to actually meet him was priceless!!
