Interesting so I thought I'd post it in Subaru/BRZ forum. Maybe just maybe the new generation engine will be shared with Scion FRS.

The only part of that article that matters to me...

"Subaru executives have said a second generation of the BRZ, launched in 2012 is in the works. The new car could come in 2018."

Should be the perfect time to trade in/up...

Reading about a 256 hp six cylinder boxer for the legacy made me wish they would stuff it in the brz...but they wont

Honestly, this doesn't look like a reliable source. Unless i'm mistaken.

But... But BRZ owners don't want new engine technology. 200hp is the PERFECT amount of HP, and the fa20 is already perfect in every way. There's no way to improve upon it.... LOLOLOL

Ooooo, cylinder deactivation, just what I want. It's like when I have sex, I like it when halfway through she kicks me in the junk so hard I double over and puke.

For me I would still prefer the same engine with generally the same slopes in the hp and torque graphs (Edit: Minus the torque dip), but structurally superior so it's red line would be around 8400 rpm, with it reaching ~240 hp and 200 lb*ft @ 8000 rpm.

please god no can we not have the same torque graph...

Will be the intro of the FA16T in North America.

DAEMANO · 03-20-2015, 02:11 PM

Most importantly that's another exec saying flat out that there will be a follow up model. Also 2018 makes a lot more sense than the hopeful 2016 that a lot of people are in for.

Are you saying that because of the huge torque dip? If so I completely agree with you.

So someone put on a site that there's this new info coming out in 2016.
No sources.
No citation.
No quotes.
No proof other than a wall of text.

HL3 confirmed!
