What comes after The 999?
Don't ask why I even thought of this but we have the 997 now so after the 998 and 999 what will Porsche do for the internal model number, 1000? I know to the public it will always be the "911" but it would be strange to talk about the 1000?

I don't think they can even do 999 because it's taken by Mazda.

So the question is...what comes after 998?

Maybe they won't make 911 anymore! In the line up, Prosche offers a sedan, suv, compact coupe, roadster and a truck! Who needs a rear engine sports car w back seats!
