A 960i to slot between the 7er and RR Ghost perhaps?
I don't think there will be a 9er.

More likely an 8er.
That's what I was thinking - the revival of the 840i/850i - fun. Given that today's 650i is very similar to the old 850i in architecture, an 8-series coupe would have to be uber luxurious like the RR coupe. It was positioned then as an executive car with power and performance but a tip-of-the-hat towards luxury. This car will make a statement that Mercedes isn't the only German car company that can still do luxury.
