My thoughts:
Those side views are not true and level for the Z5.
Anyhow I see a down market car that doesn't compete in the Corvette and MB market. The soft top is much less expensive, less complex and way lighter.
More of a modern Z3. There is a niche there now.
It will need lots of camera tech to overcome the poor visibility.
No reason why a 6 cyl. can't be offered eventually. Or even a hybrid with lots of power, and competitive with Corvette and MB but more eco (fot the Euro rules.)
A Dinan 2.0 Turbo would be a fun roadster with the right exhaust sounds.
A lower price than E89 is needed. The hard top makes the E89 too pricey and heavy. (not complaining, just sayin)
The E89 will be missed, like a lot of the great BMWs.
