Crossing fingers hard that it's an NA, maybe reworked and bored out to over 5.0 with over 500 hp. Now that would be quite special, maybe they will call it the panny R and sell it to only those that bought the 911R for 200k?

An NA V8 panamera seems incredibly unlikely in today's world. It would be such an enthusiast level engine, barely avaialble in any sports car, let alone in a heavy sedan. They're not going to put the 918 engine in it and developing a new one seems improbable: I think the current panamera gts is the last of a breed

It always takes Porsche about a year to roll out the full set of options for new models. Look for the next batch of options to be released in about three months. I'd bet black wheels will be included in that batch.

I have ordered mine, it seems like a December delivery but Not only are black wheels not avalable, bu neither are their many choices of wheels. I would love the sport classic wheels in black. Would the Sport classic wheels fit from previous Panameras? Sorry I am not big into wheel tire sizes. But you can get 21's!
