The GR86 is slated to come out in a year so you may save big money by waiting.

*17+ gets the new manifold for MT only
*GR86 is going to be expensive for quite a few years anyway, if it doesn't get canned. Don't wait if you are looking for a used car now.
As for what to look for, just the usual used car stuff. If it has abnormally clean bits in an otherwise dirty engine bay, it could have been FI at one time, which is a red flag you should look into more. Also, I would avoid a FRS that has *recently* had valve spring recall work done (unless you get a real good deal and can afford a new engine afterwards), but BRZs should be ok for the most part. I think after 20k miles or something it should be fine either way.
That's all I can think of for now.
