^ This.

I haven't even seen one let alone read any solid information on the car.

No one has any real idea how the car performs yet.

Rumor is they are breaking the lines into sedan and coupe lines. Odd numbers are the sedans, even numbers are the coupes. I imagine they'll move the Z4 into a 2-series lineup if they do this.

Don't think so, since there are rumours of a smaller Z2 in addition to the current Z4.

Wait, would that mean the next M3 coupe won't be called an M3? It'd be called the M4?

That is the rumour for teh coupe, sedan remains as M3. Nothing is confirmed yet, BMW has not made anything official.

Interesting... I thought it made sense because of the size of the Z4. Maybe they'll make the Z4 a little bigger?

The latest Z4 is much bigger than the Z3, so I assume the Z2 is an attempt to recreate the small nimble package of the Z3. Could the Z4 grow? I guess it could, who knows! Or maybe they would introduce a Z6!

On the roadster point, a 6'5 guy like me would like to see BMW build a car that is sized to rival the Boxter. I can't fit in a Z4 easily, but we tall guys like roadsters too!

I had a chance to drive a 650ci at a resort and felt it to be a bit large with a useless back seat, so why not save that space and take back the V8. They can call it the Z5 or something with the Z4 styling.

Just a thought....
