The case of the Mustang, like the Camaro, MG, Jaguar E-type, and Porsche 911, is different. While tons of each car were made, they're icons of their time periods, part of their generation's zeitgeist. Demand outstrips supply because no matter how many were made, still more people want one.

The Z4 hasn't had remotely the same cultural impact. Saying it has the same chance of appreciating is like saying the Laura San Giancomo's role in "Pretty Woman" was as important as Julia Roberts'.
