Porsche CEO Blume: "third lifestyle pillar" for the 911

"Another revelation from our chat with the Porsche boss was the introduction of a third ‘lifestyle’ pillar for the Porsche 911 range, adding to the current base and GT series cars that historically form the lineup."
A 911 wagon? Can't wait...

Maybe a couple of stripper model 911s?

Isn’t there a Porsche wagon already? I.e, Panemera.
If Porsche makes a 911 wagon, I’m out.

As much as I’d like to remain as optimistic as possible, recent Porsche missteps have me leaning towards that third pillar also being a disappointment.
The way things have been going I wouldn’t be surprised to see it be a hybrid 911 hatchback SUV.
What I’d love to see, however, would be an enthusiast based line with stripped down/bare bones tech, detuned, less exotic version similar to the 912 era but with a pure, modern take designed for the weekend street or causal track day user.
Think a detuned, NA version of the 3.0 making 300 hp with a manual trans, RWD, basic interior, weighing in at around or under 3k lbs. Hey, I can dream right?

I read somewhere the Targa is considered "lifestyle". Dreaming of a GT3 Targa, like the fantasy build one in 000 Magazine . I'll be first inline for that.

What's the 1st and 2nd pillars?
a).Coupe and Cabrio?
b) 2WheelsDrive and 4WheelsDrive?
c) Base and GT?
so the third pillar would
a) Sedan or Wagon
b) NoWheelsDrive (magnetic hoovering? )
c) Race (already here Cup/R//RSR)
i think the a) is most likely
