Default BMW says Just kidding... (Z4 M Roadster, Z4 Coupe)

When they said they were not going to build a M version of the Z4.

The Z4 based M Roadster will be built using the current E46 M3s S54 engine. They have not officially announced the car in the US but considering they sell more M cars in the US than ROW combined, it's probably going to happen.

There was speculation that the new V8 engine that is going to be used in the E90 M3 might be used, however, because of difficulty of assembly (the engine fits but it has to come in from the top) this may not happen.

Also a twin turbo 3.0L (GAS) engine is confirmed for the e90. It will be badged as 335i and produce 350hp(euro spec).
