Here are a few spy shots of the 2009 BMW Z4. Although the camouflage is being used to make the car look as much like the previous generation as possible, it seems that at least the hood line is raised (possibly to meet with European pedestrian crash standards?)

We should not be too far away from some official teasers from BMW. Production of the current generation is ending this month at the Spartanburg, S.C. factory, and it is likely that the new Z4 will only be built in Germany. The new car should be first officially shown to the public in November at the Los Angeles Auto Show.
