Future of FRS/BRZ

As owners what do you think the future of the FRS/BRZ will be? Faster, bigger engine, or will it just die? I keep reading that sales have took a nose dive which is certain death for most cars.

I don't think they will capture more sales by releasing cars with body kits and TRD parts. I think it will take more. I think they should market raw performance and stop trying to up the game with accesories
I hate to see this car die, because its exactly what the car world needs

I do keep reading about the STI version of this car in other forums and readit.

Richard, it's just that this has been discussed very thoroughly for several years on here. Almost every other thread is about it.

For real though, it has been discussed several times on the forum.

If you want my guess, it will use a new 3JZ-GTS inline 6 codeveloped with BMW running on unicorn farts. It will also have a hybrid system plus ATTESA-ETS (yes, Nissan's joining in on this one too).

I'm just making stupid shit up at this point, but it's still more believable than moroning.com.au.

Anyway, back to popcorn.

You seem to have a knack for creating erroneous and useless threads

Regardless, you can take the accessories and body kit parts of this topic and transfer it to another car. Like......wanting to sell accessories to try to keep this car alive? That's a sign that it's already dead. And then talk about THAT aspect of cars.
