    I only wish there was another 928 or 500E, aka Mercedes/Porsche Hybrid that would be put into production. 3rd time is a charm!

    I think RUF's porsche RGT-8 based on a 991 Porsche and has a V8 inside. It is an incredible car. At least RUF keeps the spirit alive!

    Nice video, thanks for sharing.

    There continue to be rumors of a new 928 based on the Panamera platform... we'll see.

    I saw some early renderings from different designers and it looks very nice.

    You're welcome.

    Good point... One of my favorites. The 991-based RGT-8 has RUF's own aluminum V8, 4 valve, dry sump... pushing 600 hp, close to 200 mph. Under 3K pounds. Incredible car.
