Alfaholico-
First off, I'm not sure that many 3-series owners are even aware of the Z8. My brother's girlfriend drives a 3-series that her father bought her. I doubt she has any idea that BMW even makes another two-seater convertible beyond the Z4. I get that idea with a lot of BMW drivers these days.
Sure, if Alfa wants to show off prestige, it would be nice to have an 8C in the showroom but I think that modern buyers are more enticed by the cars that they buy and less so with sharing any type of pedigree with the brand. Alfa's sales record is a perfect example of how the pedigree won't help a car sell if the final product is subpar. 8C and Z8 aside, if Alfa doesn't build the car that I want then I'm not buying, regardless of what else they make.
