Gen 2 will have a revised front and rear fascia and a revised center console stack. it will also probably come with stickier tires.

Gen 3 who knows.
I wasn't using sales as a precursor on why I think Subaru will kill the BRZ (and honestly no they arent good when looking at the brz specifically). My reasoning is the disolving relationship between toyota and subaru and the brz not fitting into their product line.

I also mentioned they wouldn't stop utilzing the production line and assembly process they've created for the brz but instead would offer a product much more in-line with their corporate policies, a rebooted SVX, giving customers the awd/turbo they've all been asking for.

The brz will most likely get some tweaks and a facelift but thats not a Gen 2 vehicle, and there have been plenty of cars over the years where a 2nd gen was never offered, I expect the brz to fall into that category eventually.
