I think it's a pretty easy argument to say that the Z4 coupe is a MUCH better looking car than the infamous "breadvan". (Don't get me wrong, I think the original M Coupe is fascinating, but the coupe conversion didn't come nearly as naturally to it whereas the Z4 seemed almost made with a hardtop in mind)
It could also be what makes it ultimately less "cult-y," but at the same time there's a lot going for it that makes it extremely desirable to the automotive cognoscenti:
1. The last car BMW made with an iconic, naturally aspirated inline six
2. Debatably the last "true" driver's car BMW made before electronic gizmos took over
3. Highly limited production numbers
4. Probably the epitome of Bangle's design language (as far as production cars go)
Guess we'll see in 20-30 years. I, for one, certainly hope to still have mine on the road by that time.
