Possible BMW Z2 on the way.

Smaller BMW convertible based on the 1 series possibly on the way.

Looks like the Miata may have even more competition.

Of course there is always the tried and true 2009 Z4 coming out next too:

"Honey, I shrunk the 6 series."

If the Z2 is priced anything like the 1 Series, I doubt Mazda will have to worry much.

Fixed that for you ;)

I'm sure it will cost < $30k so I doubt the Mazda or Solstice will have anything to worry about.

Try again.

Wow. Their product line up is almost as bloated and redundant as GM's.

I'm pretty sure I saw both those cars today. BMW always has camouflaged cars running around here.

Well, the new 1 series is about the size of what the 3 series was not even 20 years ago. I wonder what they'll call it in another 20 years when the 1 grows. -1 series?
