Porsche is reportedly planning a spiritual successor to the front-engine, rear-drive 928 coupe, according to U.K. magazine Autocar.

The new grand tourer, which could wear the 929 nameplate, will be based on a shortened version of the Porsche Panamera platform and will be offered in both coupe and convertible body styles. All-wheel drive will also reportedly be an option.

It's a little early, though, to dust off your copy of Risky Business and get on the horn to your local Porsche dealer. The report says the new Porsche 929 won't arrive until after the second-generation Panamera is launched. That puts the new GT in the 2015 or 2016 time frame.
