I think Z3 will compete with SLK and TT
and Z5 will compete with F type and Cayman/Boxster
We don't have jack shit to compete with SL, 911, or R8. The best we'll have to offer will be i8 which I must say I'm pretty excited about; something different.
But if BMW doesn't have a proper midengine proper sports super car by 2020, I might leave the brand. It's not a threat but just getting sick of Audi, an inferior brand than a BMW, having a proper midengine super car.
I'm relatively young at age 25 and if you ask people my age or younger which brand is your favorite of Mercedes, BMW, and Audi, 90% of them say Audi. Either because of clean and simple design that's easy on eyes and/or the R8.
