Things can happen that may prevent/delay a 2nd gen 86 or BRZ, and right now there isn't enough information to try to formulate a reliable timeline.

Personally I think it will be more than a year before we get any more information about the possibility of a 2nd generation, so you will easily end up driving that Camry for around 2-3 years if you are going to wait. As for trying to get a good deal on a 860, Toyota dealers I have talked with in SoCal seem content to let the 860s sit rather than make substantial deals, so you may be waiting till sometime in 2018 before you'll see a dealer finally give a decent price on a '17 860.
Thanks for the insight! Very good points. I'm personally fine with waiting a little into 2018 since my Camry will have a 1 year Certified Pre-owned warranty anyway.
