Year-to-date, the Z4 and i8 are almost identically popular. It's not that BMW doesn't know the sports car market isn't what it was; that demand for cars like the Z4 – most especially, the Z4 – isn't what it once was.

But the metrics by which we can establish that the Z4 is now hugely ineffective are numerous. In the United States, Mercedes-Benz's SLK was six times more popular than the Z4 in October 2015. Only 0.3% of the BMWs sold in America in October 2015 were Z4s, down from 3.8% a decade ago.

^ BMW USA, not GoodCarBadCar, has chosen to combine sales figures of the 1-Series and 2-Series.
Clearly GoodCarBadCar is not suggesting that the cars in the tables above are all direct competitors. Establishing categories among cars as unique as even the Audi TT and Porsche Boxster has never pleased a single reader, so cars have been lumped together so you can simply see how buyers looking for sports cars, roadsters, hot hatches, convertibles, GTs, and wanna-be sports cars spend their money. Greater categorization of cars would only lead to problems that automakers create by not isolating model-specific sales figures: we don't know how many M3s BMW has sold or how many Civics are Si models, for example. The numbers we do have are listed above. The BMW 6-Series has been removed from the premium list because we don't use this space as a showcase for sedans (unless automakers release data for high-end sporting models like the Lexus ISF, as Toyota Canada does) and the 6-Series lineup now relies heavily on a sedan variant. GoodCarBadCar is always open to hearing about the ways you would break down segments, so feel free to get in touch. You can always find the sales results for EVERY vehicle and form your own competitive sets by using the All Vehicle Rankings posts.
Sales data for brands such as Aston Martin, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Lotus, Rolls-Royce etc. are unfortunately not broken down by model. ANDC estimates say sales for Aston Martin and Lotus in the first ten months of 2015 were 850 and 126, respectively.
Bentley sold 1917 cars in the first ten months of 2015, 121 in October.
Ferrari sold 1903 cars in the first ten months of 2015, 194 in October.
Maserati sold 9543 cars in the first ten months of 2015; 1166 in October.
Lamborghini sold 866 cars in the first ten months of 2015; 65 in October.
Rolls-Royce sold 701 cars in the first ten months of 2015; 65 in October.
