I've thought about this as well. Mechanical bits will be easy, since the car is based on the very common E46. The bodies should last alright thanks to modern rustproofing techniques and the typical car's role as 2nd or 3rd car. Twenty years from now, I don't think anyone would advise restoring a Z4 that has rust or needs bodywork.
The classic car owner that will have it hardest is the Z4 coupe owner; parts will be super thin on the ground for these. But I think even 30 years from now, the Z4 Coupe in mint condition will look wicked.
