Don't forget the 918's global production debut on September 18 [9/18 - how fitting]. My guess with the Panamera facelift is that we'll see it at a Chinese auto show in either Beijing or Shanghai in April; fitting as China is one of the biggest Panamera markets and how the car was globally unveiled there back in 2009.
With all that's going on, this could be our tentative timeline for the next 12 months:
November 2012: 981 Cayman
March 2013: 991 GT3
April 2013: 971 Panamera
September 2013: Macan, 991 Turbo, 918 Spyder
November 2013: 991 GT3 RS
Subject to change, naturally. I'd personally love to see a Macan concept before the unveiling; AutoBild had a piece [with the recent green Macan rendering] about us seeing something like this by Geneva in 2013. Any input from the more informed among us?

Macan - Definitely introduced in Frankfurt 2013 - First customer cars by the end of 2013
991 Turbo - Most likely introduced before Frankfurt 2013 - Probably early summer 2013
