Keep getting hints from people that the 998 will be a lot more than a 997 with a bit of polish. Just wondering if anyone here has heard anything?

Cheers

I haven't heard a thing, but I wonder what they're going to do after they get to 999.

We'll find out after the Panamera launch in a couple of years.

998? thats a long time..i think porsche will release the 998 until 2011 as a 2012 model and im thinking that becasuse porsche replace their models every 7 years and the release of the 997 was in 2004 as a 2005 model...

If they keep putting the motor in the wrong placeI don't care what they do to the 998.
