At least this seems like a competent and reasonably fun car, unlike the E89 which it replaces.

Main selling points for the Bimmer over the 718: cheaper leases, option for 6 cylinders, more tech (mostly useless to enthusiasts though), and more eye-catching looks (good or bad depending on your preference).
I definitely agree, but has there ever been a Z4/3 that was better than the Boxster? I mean, I always consider Porsche to be a different class above BMW, Merc, and Audi.
