I'm from the "no one ever stays on top" camp, so while I do believe their present very successful run is far from over, there is just too much competition lately from all sides,....other brands, economy, etc., to think they will remain at the top forever. Sooner or later the stars will align to knock them back a bit.

I actually see the Cayman/Boxster getting hurt in the future if Porsche keeps holding them back behind the 911. They're in a too volatile price range to keep competing with other cars that will be offering (or already are) 400 or more HP, nice handling, and more equipment.

911 drivers/wanters will for the most part always drive a 911 or want one, no matter what. Cayman owners are the ones that took a bit of a risk, and might look elsewhere if Porsche doesn't produce a very decent upgraded version fairly soon. BWM, Audi, Nissan & Chevy, all have good products that seem to get better in leaps and bounds, the Cayman needs to do that also. The little refinements Porsche is used to giving its products may not cut it anymore. Every 3 or 4 years they will have to re-invent the wheel,.....and it better be great each time to stay on top.

I don't know about the Panamera, it will either sell or be a flop. From the looks of it, I hate to say I'm betting flop. This could be one of the miss steps from Porsche in a fairly long time.

If I'm running Porsche?......I'd bring back the 928 to be the top end GT car. The world just wasn't ready for the 928 when it was being produced, I believe now is the time. Make it special enough with different versions to cover many areas from Aston to Ferrari.

Keep producing/selling the 911 for the people who just can't live without 'em, but bring down the price a bit. IMO, they simply aren't worth what they are asking for them. Maybe $5k more for a 911 over a Cayman/Boxster.

Put the same engines as in the 911 in the Cayman/Boxster. Cayman S with 385 HP from the factory!.....then you really won't need to sneak around Corvettes, M3s, etc., just blow them away. Don't raise/lower the price, just throw in PCM, Xenons, and a few other items for free.

Just my .02....
