Cayman S, hands down.
not only is the new Z4 3.5L a pig in comparison, but its center of gravity is also a major hindrance (hard top convertible = lots of extra weight at the highest point on the car) - body roll will be much more noticeable in the Z4 than the Cayman.
at the end of the day, it really depends on what you're looking for in a car. i would choose the Cayman S in a heartbeat b/c i care more about pure performance than i do about a well-rounded package that includes some performance, some luxury, etc. (even with my daily street driven ride). others however might prefer the all-around package for the streets and save pure performance for the weekends, preferring two separate cars (a Z4 3.5 for the daily, and a Cayman S for a weekend track toy for example).
if having two cars isn't an option, you'll just have to decide for yourself how much performance (OR luxury/comfort) you're willing to sacrifice with your daily ride.
