I tottaly agree with you about cayman and boxter but carrera is totally different story and you can't compare both cars.Even the price is 50% more(carrera 2S cabrio).
Anyway Bilstein inform me that give B16 ride control at march/april 2010.
I agree with most of what your saying about the Porsche's. The 911 TT is pretty cool, but the interior basic and plain. IMO.

On the other hand, I think your feelings on the e89 Z4 are a bit misplaced when you compare the older e85 M to the e89 Z4.

First, your comparing apples and oranges. As another has said, you can't compare a normal BMW to an M BMW. You couldn’t do that with a normal e85 and an e85 M either, so it not fair to do it to the e89.

Second, as noted the car is still relatively new so it will take the vendors a little while longer to produce aftermarket products for it. We're also in a recession right now and nobody can predict when we'll pull. if I was a vendor making aftermarket products, I might be inclined give it a 2nd thought before I splashed out with a big investment. However, that's no reason to hate the car.

A lot of us would like to see an e89 M, but until then. . .
