My guesses were for about a 10% bump over MY2008. My hunch is that's all the market will bear.

Even if the MY09's are much improved, I still do not think they will match a Boxster S (for handling, balance, and sportiness) or the SLK (for cachet and luxury). If BMW prices them equivalently, they'll languish on the lots.

Heck, I was all set to buy a Z4 3.0 in 2005, but after comparing it to an S2000, the latter proved to be the more capable vehicle (and I went with it instead).
