I am the 5th owner of ours (in 3 years) now that says to me that whoever bought the car before just didn't/couldn't drive it

to be honest that was a few years ago now....all that bothers me is money, money and more money. I aint in IT for the pleasure of it, just the money
Sadly the money is tailing off at the moment...drastically
Might need a career change soon

I personally include them in the massmarket category, since every man and his dog seems to think they have to buy one, just like the XR3 when it was realeased 20+ years ago It's because they want to sell cars in huge quantities that they'll end up with the same image problem Ford has, solved for them by buying Jaguar, Volvo and Aston.
Mind you, now Porsche do a Land Rover lookalike, they can hardly be called 'aspirational'

Bear in mind though, that the Porsche "Land Rover lookalike" that you mention will stay with a S2K on the straight and round the twisties, while carrying 4 people in luxury!
Ugly yes, but you can't knock the technology!

I don't see why a Z4 shouldn't be compared to a Boxster. It looks good. The performance is good and I've little doubt despite not having driven one that it will handle well. In due course an M version will come out which will eat a Boxster S for breakfast.
