The long shift throw and CDV are easy fixes.
You can get a ZHP weighted knob from Tischer BMW for about $50. It's a very popular mod and actually greatly improves driving experience.
And get a modified (dummy) CDV from zeckhausen.com. You can of course simply take the CDV out, but the modified CDV prevents the dealer from knowing you changed the CDV and thus voiding your drivetrain warranty.

The original ZHP knob is no longer available. Current ZHP knob is not even close. Even leather Z can't get them anymore.

Actually they still make it. I've found a few BMW dealers who still stock them and just ordered one.
It's a must-do mod for the Z4 (or any BMW). Trust me you won't regret it.
