Like the previous M Coupe, doesn't seem to have many options which is nice.
What is included in the premium package?
What is extended leather?
What's under the mysterious big box in the boot?
How do you find viability out the back and sides?
What aftermarket/accessories retailers do you like?
Many thanks for any input!

Some options MAY have changed over the three production years, but this should give you a good sense of what was available. You can check out the photos section of the forum to see the various colors, trims and so on.

Extended leather is still an option even in today's BMWs, where the dash and parts of door panels are upholstered in leather. My Z4M has the carbon leather option where instead of the standard aluminum trim, the dash has leather that looks like carbon fiber. It's pretty neat.
The trunk has a hidden compartment which contains the battery, tool kit and tire pump provided by factory.
Visibility is like any other sports car. Not great, but not terrible either. You'll get used to the small rear windshield, and the side mirrors are ample.
The Z4M shares a lot of parts with the E46 M3 so there are decent amount of aftermarket options for power, brakes, suspension etc. However, it is still a rare car so we aren't spoiled for choice like the E46 guys especially when it comes to the used parts. What are you looking for specifically?
