There is no other sports car in Subaru lineup. BRZ is good for their brand image and nicely complements their product portfolio. I think they would keep BRZ disregarding the economic mess following the pandemic. And they would be able to have the car as a competitor to Supra. I can see an NA and a turbo STI model.

Given that Toyota will have three models of Supra in a wide performance and price range, they might just need another Celica or MR2 as the next 86.

Joint production of 86/BRZ looks like a conflict of interest to me.
