994 has been used , but who knows , since they have recently resurrected decades-old typ numbers such as " 718 " and " 918"
my bet is on " 998 " for the 911s ( and " 988 " for the parallel Cayman/Boxster models ) after review of this table:

On another note...Porsche is running out of numbers...

How much longer will Porsche even make a 911? Most of their sales come from SUVs and sedans and a lot of people now are excited about becoming full time passengers with ride sharing or autonomous cars.
If Porsche makes a sedan/SUV that's autonomous and faster at everything than a sports car you can drive yourself will people think that things like "feel", "experience", and "sound" are outdated, like with people buying automatic sports cars since it generates faster numbers?

Man had a passion for driving and the whole experience. Let them say what they want about self driving solar electric eco cars. The consumer has the loudest voice and buying power. We like our freedom.

I will NOT buy cars any longer if those are our only options...

Soon the Panny/Cayenne will have the visuals and sound of a video game 911 where you virtually drive yourself around the ring or whatever track you want (or watch virtual fish tanks/****/whatever) while the electric self driving car takes you to your destination.

It seems a big part of our self-determination story revolves around the freedom of mobility, and an important element of that is the self-determination of being at "the helm" or "the wheel" ourselves.
And I'm not saying the SF authors actually think we WILL be driving ourselves in the future, so much as they recognize the importance to the story of having the hero drive it himself. Because the consumers of the story think that's such an important element of the humanity, maybe even the heroism, of the story.

As someone who loves driving sports cars I would hope this will continue to be the case. It's just a bit discouraging when I talk to people that couldn't care less about driving and seem happy to let the machines take over. Even so called enthusiast seem more enamored with numbers than actually enjoying the car.
