> i didn’t read all of that, but here is my thought on rwb outside of japan; in japan Nakai San takes your car, decides what color it should be and then builds it, you do not get to choose what he does. Although that is a difficult thing to imagine for me to allow someone else to do, since i like to work on my own cars, if he isn’t there choosing the color, naming the car and designing them, i don’t know if to me they will really be rwb cars. I still love the styling of them and i’m fine with Nakai San making more money but i’m on the fence still.

I’m a little surprised, but I think I’m on the same page as you. I thought RWB was awesome because it was a tiny dirty little shop that build an extremely limited number of cars that looked like they could be tribute to some old Le Mans race cars.

Now, they’ve spread to 4 different countries are mass marketing the whole thing. It’s spread to the mainstream and now it’s no longer this small awesome thing that is at the center of this niche. Its now on the front page of Aol Cars/Autoblog and is the main feature of a brand launch that’s a joint venture between DC Shoes/Ken block/ and the head hauncho at the two previously mentioned websites.

It’s been bastardized and I think it’s done.
