That would be nice. It would give the 991 a new look, though it still has the familiar 911 shape. At the same time it would make the 997 look even more classic.

Re: Porsche 991 GT3 to include GT1 motorsport engine...
Moi aussi. Spent a lot of time last week sitting in all sorts of new Panameras and 997s. The 997 interior looks very dated compared to the Panamera interior. The new 991 interior will be vastly better, IMHO.
The sales manager of the dealership--a major one in Florida--says that the Panamera is his biggest seller by far. He is selling 997s, but mostly nice used ones.
Incidentally, he had a beautiful black/black GTS Cab on the floor. The price was in the Panamera Turbo range....

2012 Porsche 991 Carrera...
Porsche is soon to launch its next-generation 911 and as can be seen by these latest spy shots, prototypes for the car appear to be almost complete. Shown in the least camouflage and from the closest distance yet, the new 911 looks to be just as its predecessors have been: a variation on the classic theme, with some modern tweaks. But just as the continuity of looks in previous cars have masked major mechanical changes, so to will the next-gen 911.
We first started seeing test-mules for the 2012 Porsche 911 back in 2008 and soon after that Porsche's former chief of research and development, Wolfgang Dürheimer, revealed some details of what to expect for the new car.
Speaking of the new car, Dürheimer said, "'it will be even more competent, even sexier, even more unique. The design can of course only be evolutionary, but beneath the skin, almost anything is possible". The 2012 Porsche 911, known internally as 'project 991', will feature a few radical departures from the 911's long-running classical styling.
The changes are out of necessity more than anything, but they will be noticeable. First, pedestrian protection rules in Europe will require a change to the nose section of the car, likely meaning a larger and more collapsible bumper section. The rear of the car will also be changed, but for aerodynamic improvement.
Clear differences between the new model and the current 997 are the more upright headlights, a slightly longer body, and the side mirrors are now positioned at the side of the doors and not at the window.
Other new features for the car will include extensive use of lightweight carbon fiber materials and active aerodynamics--surfaces that react to what the car is doing, and how fast it's doing it. Expect adjustable front and rear spoilers, dynamically opening and closing air intakes and an automatic rear wing.
As for powertrains, reports coming out of Germany claim power in the base Carrera will stand at 345 horsepower from a 3.4-liter boxer engine, downsized 200cc from the current engine. Step up to the Carrera S, however, and you’re expected to get a bigger 3.8-liter engine and 395 horsepower.
We still have a long wait to get the final word, however, as the 2012 Porsche 911 isn't due until September at the 2011 Frankfurt Auto Show.

Re: Porsche 991 GT3 to include GT1 motorsport engine...
Take a look at the 918 RSR and you have a good idea of how the tail lights are going to look alike on the 991. The headlights don't get an extreme shape, they stay almost classic, similar to the 997.
What is actually very nice about the 991, design-wise, are the proportions front and rear. They are much more accentuated than on the current 997, making the 911 look more masculine, more like a street machine. I just love it. 
It won't be long until Porsche is going to unveil the 991...in a way or another.
