Just more rumors. But it's something.

Wonder if 2nd gen. GT86 will be Subaru co-developed, as this one, or BMW co-developed, and will get a new the new Toyota turbocharged 2.0l I4. Can't wait for next generation GT86 complaints like high CoG, turbo lag, low redline, same engine as any other Toyota/Lexus etc...

It sounds like the most likely upgrade we're going to see is a 2.5L na FA25 :/

What is Ferrari contributing? $30K oil changes?

There are things that this article point out that really help to verify that they are true because you can see that they say things that are said. I mean, its great to have "random quote" or citing a source that "said some other stuff too". It really is quite political of them to say so much and say nothing at all. Isn't it amazing?

Thats what that article was. Saying a bunch of stuff and saying nothing at all.

You walk away thinking, "WTF. This article LITERALLY said nothing."

Reminds me of when people would render iPhone concepts, and sites would write an article discussing how they felt about changes that a random third party had theorized. And they'd criticize Apple for design features, despite it being something a dude made up in Autocad.

Yeah. I can't stand bs like that.

Its one thing to have some grasp of reality, but it just causes rumors about the rumors.

I can't wait for the follow up "rumor" about this article to get posted by 1000 newbs.

They can title the threads:
"2nd gen FRS, will it be turbo?"
or
"2nd gen 86, should I buy 2015 or wait for 2016?"
