So here's my question...
Should I pull the trigger on the BRZ STi, or is there any news or rumor about another GT-86 or BRZ in the making that will be better?

Do you mean the BRZ STI Sport?

I do agree with ensuring you have more than enough reserve money before purchasing anything new. However, I am not as familiar with how the car system works in Japan, as I thought having a place to park your car was Job #1.
There are a few long threads about the "BRZ tS" in USDM here on ft86. One of them being:
I still generally have an issue with this car, as it offers no other performance benefits over the BRZ Limited with the performance pack.
Therefore, I would state if you did have to have a new car, the Performance Pack is available, and it is much cheaper than any STi Sports edition there, I would pick the BRZ with Performance Pack.
If there is another reason why you want the STI Sports, let us know! I would like to know what makes it more attractive in Japan.
Ps. It is unfortunately "STI", as Subaru Technical International changed that around 2006 from STi to STI.
