Should Porsche come out with a "new" 928?

From the article, the new 911 GTS will have a string engine! This IS exciting!

Panamera Coupe is not a 928.

So much $h1+ in that article. Written by a third grader, not in English, and then run through google translate several times.

Too make the engine string to support a more than 420 bhp, German engineers discovered way to introduce powdered Black Rhino Horn into turbocharger. This make it very much stringer boastful!
P.S. I love that the GTS comes with "...central locking rims too." LOL!

The current issue of Panorama discusses new versions of the Panamera: shooting brake (station wagon) and a 2-door/shorter version (?), about which they reference the 928. I'm trying to remain calm.

As long as they don't make a shortened two-door shooting brake.
Vega anyone?

Correction (?) to my December Panorama reference. Here is the relevant paragraph in Street Talk, p.18, which seems to conflate the Cayenne and Panamera platforms - they can't be the same, can they?
"The new Cayenne shares a platform with the Audi Q7 and Bentley Bentayga. The Cayenne has been offered as a hybrid for several years but a coupe version is being considered for both the Porsche and the Bentley. It would essentially be an update of the 928, developed on the Panamera's new MSB architecture and filling a market void that has existed since 1995. Finally, the name of the Panamera shooting brake (station wagon) has been released: Panamera Sport Turismo."
I guess we'll all be torn between getting the bastard-child Porsche version, or the baggage-free Bentley.

I had 90GT when the Cayenne S very first came out. Went for a test drive of the new Cayenne S. Have a very trusting salesman at the local dealer and he let me really flog it. Was surprised at how much it felt like i was driving my 90GT, only taller.

Both are wonderful vehicles, but to me, different.
