I know it said this:
"And it’s possible that the U.S.-spec FR-S may not receive any of the aforementioned power upgrades at all."
but I feel like they just said "FR-S" because "FR-S/BRZ" is too wordy and "the twins" would be confusing to some readers. Outside of a silly "STi" trim, I don't think there will be such a serious upgrade to the BRZ as a new engine, but not to the FR-S. I think everyone will have just as easy/difficult time deciding between the two as they always have.
If the US gets a new engine, then both cars will get it. My feelings.

I hope so. If this new engine ends up replacing all the current 2.0L engines, then it shouldn't be a problem. But if it's going to be optional in other markets, Scion likely won't bite. Oh well, I guess we'll just have to wait and see as with every rumor. But I would love to have a bigger engine in the FR-S. I'm still hoping for the HID's too in the non Series 10 cars (which will likely never happen).
